博客來Growing up is inevitable. In this story, Lily learns that the transition from fourth to fifth grade is harder than she anticipated. She frequently compares herself to others and fills her mind with recurring negative thoughts that distract her, even in the classroom. Until one day, Lily meets a fourth grader who unexpectedly changes her perspective and helps Lily realize her strengths.
In this day and age, with social media pressure, it is difficult to not compare oneself to others and lose confidence. This story is a good reminder to older elementary-aged readers that every person has their own strengths and personal challenges. Daily negative thinking-like the troublesome ＂I am nots＂ and the comparison game-will only lead to missed opportunities in learning and growing. So stop what you are doing and read this book to learn how to Conquer the I Am Nots: One Thought at a Time!
