Alli the Alligator: A Children's Book About Kindness, Bullying, Courage, and Celebrating Differences by Cindy MillerMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is such a sweet gentle book, it is sure to resonate with every reader’s heart however old they are. Because in the books and every around, being different is not wrong. But when reality hits and you see people with their cold stealthy eyes and low whispers, the ache is real. We all have faced it.
Alli the Gator is sweet and gentle; she is loved by her family in the river. But she dreams big of going to school, she enters the school with high expectations and big smile. But when she is instead slapped with a cold demeanor and hostile attitude, her heart sinks.
But Alli keeps her head high and responds to everyone with kindness. It takes time to fit in, but eventually people see her bravery, courage and kindness. It is a soft victory, but a huge one.
I loved this book and would recommend it to everyone of any age. This topic is relevant to all of us.
