Tameka'S New Dress (Nelson Beats The Odds)

When you're the new girl in school it can be a little scary. It's even tougher when your parents aren't there to help. Some of the kids might be friendly but what about that mean girl who's always picking on you? The author brings up the subjects of domestic abuse, drug use, relocation and bullying with a gentle touch suitable for even the youngest children. Tameka's New Dress shines a light on these tough things and lays them out on the table to talk about. He also presents us with a strong girl in Tameka, who not only finds adults who can and do support her, but also finds a way to fight off the mean girls without becoming a bully herself. Real tips for real life situations are presented here - just what real little children need - a great addition to the library shelves.
