Official synopsis Publisher
A young girl is proud of being the star athlete at her school. But when a new kid moves to town and she suddenly has to share the spotlight, her jealousy gets the best of her. After getting to know the new kid, she learns that making new friends is more fun than being a green-eyed monster.
While children enjoy expressing themselves—be it through laughter or tears—they don’t always have the words to articulate their emotions. The Dealing with Feelings series is designed to give a voice to what’s brewing inside, showing children how to name their emotions as they also learn to read.
