Meet Chloe J. She is two. She is terrific. And she has one absolute favorite word...
"NO!"
From the moment she wakes up, Chloe J is ready to take charge. Does she want breakfast? No. Does she want to wear matching clothes? No way! Does she want to leave the park? Absolutely not.
Join Chloe J on a hilarious and heartwarming journey through a single, busy day as she discovers her own voice and tests the limits of her independence. Her loving parents try to keep up with her sassy spirit, but it takes a special surprise from Grandma (and a little bit of strawberry ice cream) to show Chloe J that sometimes, saying "YES" is the best adventure of all.
