The Meanest Birthday Girl

(4) 1-3 Dana, a show-off and a bully, receives a white elephant for her birthday--literally and figuratively. At first she's thrilled, but as she struggles to take care of her pet she falls victim to a bully and begins feeling empathy for others. The illustrations ably support the short text, but overall the message in this chapter book for newly independent readers is rather confusing.
