About This Book
Reach for this collection when your child is navigating the shifting tides of becoming a big sibling or facing the jitters of a new performance. These stories provide a comforting anchor for children who are beginning to bridge the gap between simple picture books and more complex chapter books. Through the familiar and graceful world of Angelina Mouseling, the book explores how to share the spotlight with a younger sister, how to handle the pressure of performing for a princess, and how to maintain poise during a school competition. It is a gentle, affirming choice for children aged 5 to 9 who are building their self-confidence and learning that being a 'star' often means being a good friend and mentor. The mouse-centric world provides just enough distance for kids to safely process their own social-emotional growing pains.
