A beautiful book written by an actual queen. This book teaches about tolerance and accepting others. It is about two girls in school who learn how to accept each other's lunches, even though they are unfamiliar with what the food is. It teaches kids that it is important to not assume they will not like something that is new, and also to be kind to friends who might be different. It celebrates cultures and the beauty that all of have something special to share! The last page is a real treat. The illustrations are delightful. The school pictures look a little different than schools in the USA because they are based on the author's experiences. Make sure to read your child the biography of the author at the end! This book is a real gem.
