Description

Ellie feels like she is disappointing people if she says “no.”

One way or another, she thinks she is hurting someone’s feelings. Or she puts other people’s wants or needs in front of her own. With help from her parents and her teacher, Ellie finds the strength to be honest with people and do the right thing for herself by learning how to say “no.”

This is a hopeful, helpful story for kids who need reassurance that they can be nice to others and be true to themselves.
