A Small Thing...But Big

The sweet and simple illustrations in this 2018-19 NH Ladybug nominee help tell the tale of a girl who is somewhat afraid of dogs.  An old man in the park helps her get over the fear bit by bit.  Each victory for the girl is a small thing, but big to her - petting, walking beside, holding the leash.  Young students will identify with her successes and I look forward to discussions about small things that might have seemed big a the time.  (I loved the twist ending!!!!)  (PIC JOH)
