Reach for this book when your child feels overlooked because of their age or when they are struggling to find the courage to protect something they love. Imogene Tripp is a spunky, history-obsessed girl who discovers that her town's historical society is about to be leveled for a shoelace factory. While the adults around her seem resigned to the change, Imogene uses her knowledge of the past to fuel a persistent, one-girl protest. It is a vibrant celebration of civic engagement and the power of a single voice. This story is ideal for children ages 4 to 9 who are developing a sense of justice and community. Through Imogene's humorous and determined journey, parents can discuss the importance of standing up for one's beliefs, even when the opposition seems much bigger. It models resilience and the idea that being 'just a kid' doesn't mean you can't make a monumental impact on the world around you.
