I Will Never Get a Star on Mrs. Benson's Blackboard

About this book

This charming story is both affirmative and celebratory of the different skill sets children possess. Bulletin of the Center for Childrens Books (starred review) Rose is a distracted and creative soul. She does her best at school but sometimes her mind wanders and she answers the wrong question. And keeping her desk neat is a challenge. When its time to make thank-you cards for a class visitor Roses art supplies turn her workspace and her into a colorful mess. But her artistic skills shine through in the gorgeous oversize card she creates. Could she possibly get a star after all?
