Synopsis
Patricia Polacco is now one of America's most loved children's book creators, but once upon a time, she was a little girl named Trisha starting school. Trisha could paint and draw beautifully, but when she looked at words on a page, all she could see was jumble. It took a very special teacher to recognize little Trisha's dyslexia: Mr. Falker, who encouraged her to overcome her reading disability.- ★★★★☆

“Stop! Are all of you so perfect that you can look at another person and find fault with her?” This biography offers countless lessons for children: reverence for knowledge, books, teachers, and elders; the importance of seeking help from teachers, parents, and family; and the causes and effects of bullying and laughing at others. For these reasons, it has earned our Gold Star.
