Lena’s Toes
by Becky Parry
Pretty in Perseverance
This book has 5 chapters. It’s always a thrill to my young readers when they read a chapter book! This book definitely appealed to my daughter more than my sons, but it is a sweet story with a nice theme of perseverance. This is the book that my daughter picks up to read most often.
My daughter enjoyed it.
My daughter is 7 and struggles with reading but she enjoyed reading this one because it is like a chapter book and had girls dancing in it.
