Cute poems that deal with the everyday situations of family life, teaches young readers that all families have their ups and downs, but with the ups and downs of family life, families always stick together no matter what, the lack of pictures might not be appealing to younger children, fun for parents to read together with their kids, for independent reading, this would best for older children

Lovely collection of poems that reflect family values and modern family life. There are about 150 poems that cover topics such as belonging and togetherness. I would recommend these for students struggling at home or with family issues, these could be a great way to inspire family bonding or friendship bonding in school.

I really enjoyed reading this book of poems! Every poem I could almost relate to in some way. The one poem that I read in class was called Bertha's Wish, I chose that one because it made me laugh. Since the whole book was about girls I ended reading almost every poem. Great book, thoroughly enjoyed it!

This book has a lot of poems and they are special for girls. The poems vary from funny, silly poems to sad, insecure poems.
