The Jellybeans and the Big Dance
By Laura Joffe Numeroff
ISBN: 9780810993525
I read this book for the first time this weekend and it is one of my new favorites. It is about a girl named Emily who is upset because the other girls in her dance class are so different from her that she doesn't think they will become friends. After a trip to the candy store she discovers the group of girls are similar to jellybeans in that they are all different but they mix together well. They soon become friends and work together to have a great dance recital.
This book does a good job teaching about friendship and acceptance the only bad part is there are no boys in the story so this is most likely a story girls could relate to better.
It only gets the reader thinking about comparisson because Emily compares the girls to jellybeans.
