My Review

I loved this book so much. Zippy is special. Although, so are all of her friends as Zippy learned. The thing that Zippy did not like about herself were her stripes, she learned they are what make her so special. This book teaches young children that we are all different but special in our own special way. In other words...self acceptance. What we may view as a flaw in ourselves is not one one after all. This is a recommended read for sure.
