Reach for this book when your child is starting to experiment with their identity or feels the pressure to act 'tough' or 'cool' to fit in with a certain crowd.

As Lizzie attempts to adopt a new, edgy persona to match her new friend, she discovers the emotional weight of living a lie and the value of staying true to her kind-hearted self. It is a lighthearted but meaningful look at peer pressure and self-confidence, perfect for readers aged 8 to 12 who are balancing the desire for independence with their own moral compass.
