An award-winning picture book about resilience, self-esteem, and
the power of talking about emotions Lili Macaroni loves drawing
butterflies, counting the stars, and being exactly who she is-Lili
Macaroni. That is, until she starts kindergarten. There her
classmates tell her that her hair is like a pumpkin, her eyes are
squinty blueberries, and her laugh is like a parrot's squawk. She
has never felt such unhappiness before. It makes her want to erase
herself and draw a brand-new Lili. Then she reconsiders. Does she
really want to erase her hair that's just like Mom's? Her eyes just
like Grandma's? Her Grandpa's infectious laugh? With her parents'
help, she creates a polka-dotted butterfly to wear at her collar,
publicly announcing her own resilience and symbolically letting her
sorrows be flown away. And when she explains the butterfly to her
classmates, Lili discovers she has begun a powerful conversation,
and that everyone has some trouble to be carried away on butterfly
wings. In this accessible exploration of emotions and self-esteem,
Nicole Testa and Annie Boulanger create a relatable heroine with
inborn ingenuity and warm family support.

I Didn't Do Nuthin' is a short story about a boy that always seems
to get into trouble because of his behavior in class, at home and
on the playground. The story winds the reader through the boy's
decisions and inner thoughts as he comes to the conclusion that
many of his decisions made him a bully in the eyes of his
classmates and his family. The story follows his journey to
discovering what bullying looks like and how it makes others feel.
The artwork is vibrant and the story provides a framework for
opening up a discussion about bullying.
What if everybody chose to be kind? If you tell someone that they
can't play with you, there's no harm done, right? But what if
everybody said that? What if everybody forgot to be kind-and made
fun of other kids' artwork at school, or told a fib, or refused to
share with a person in need? The world wouldn't be a very nice
place to live. But what if everybody thought before they spoke, so
the world would be a kinder place? With clear prose and
lighthearted artwork, this companion book to the bestseller What If
Everybody Did That? explores the power of words and shows kids that
the things we say matter.
