Ann and Bess are playing school but they won’t allow Min to join the game, saying she is too young and drawing a line around their play area that she must not cross. But clever Min finds a way to have her own fun – and ultimately join Ann and Bess without crossing the line. Read the book to find out how she manages this feat!

I absolutely loved the STEM problem-solving skills found in this book. Younger siblings everywhere – and frankly all kids at one point or another – can identify with being left out of a particular activity or game. Instead of getting upset, Min shows how you can turn the tables and take charge of a bad situation, turning it to everyone’s advantage instead.

This book manages to tell an absolutely compelling story with a limited vocabulary and only a few short sentences per page. This makes this book ideal for beginning readers working on reading alone or with a bit of help. ( )

Inventive Min proves to her friends she's plenty smart enough to play. ( )
