The artwork in this book is beautiful. I love that this is a collection of short stories about the different things Sasha faces in school. She labels herself as a “geek” but comes to realize others like the same things she does. I really liked the lesson she learns in bouncing back from a failure and, the many beautiful differences between different cultures. Every scenario is something any young girl could face while in school, the pressures to fit in, not to stand out because they are smart, bullying those who are different and, the pressure to study and study without taking time to be a kid. The vocabulary wall project at the end of the book is an excellent idea for kids to learn and retain new words they are learning. Great read!
