Personal Rating- 3

I did not find this book very exciting. The storyline is kind of cute but it was really not all that appealing to me. The message in the book is good though. It demonstrates that even though we are all different, we are all important. We cannot all do the same things, but the things that we are able to do are what make us great. Also, the book demonstrates that when you set your mind to accomplish something, you should try to stay determined and reach your goals.
