Annie Cranston is six years old, and her imagination often seems to get her into trouble. Now she’s heading into the first grade and worries that school will be boring.

Children and parents will enjoy this gentle tale about how the right words can change a child’s opinion of herself and her outlook on life.

The story is written at a level between picture books and chapter books. Children will enjoy hearing it read to them as they prepare for first grade and should be able to read it with help by the end of the year.
