Stand Tall Molly Lou Mellon is really a great book on many levels. It teaches my toddler about being proud and believing in herself. Of all the books I have for my 2-year old, this one is definitely the best. In today's world I am greatly worried about bullying. The only real solution for bullying is for the whole community to intervene. This includes parents, teachers, administrators, children, and neighbors. This rarely happens. At least this book will help to create a confidence in her that will not make her an easy target for bullies.
The front cover of the book shows a short Molly with a big shadow. That sort of image helps to stay in the sub-conscious. I wish authors would make more self-esteem oriented story books for toddlers. If they learn how to be self-confident at their earlies, it will be hard for anyone to take it away.
