I Am Small

(3) K-3 Narrator Mimi is so frustratingly diminutive that she can't reach above the bottom of the blackboard at school, see all the desserts in the bakery's display case, etc. Her insecurity is finally mitigated at book's end, when her father introduces her to a tiny new family member. Leng's deft pen-and-ink and watercolor art captures Mimi's pint-size drama to perfection.
