Kiki has always wanted to be part of the "it girl" group of girls, and finally has her chance. All of them are going to sing together at the elementary school talent show. The problem is the song the other girls want to sing. Kiki knows her mom would not approve of the love song, it is not appropriate for her age.
Her mom does finds out, and Kiki is forbidden from singing that song. Her mom suggests the girls sing a song from church.
Kiki approaches the girls about the song change, but they refuse. One of them makes fun of singing a church song. Kiki is left with the choice of going along with the girls, or standing up to them, and possibly singing alone. They might even kick her out of their crowd.
Will Kiki risk it all to do the right thing?
This story is based on a true situation that really happened in the author's life. Children will be able to identify with Kiki's position.
I loved this story; it is true to life. This book shows how difficult it can be to stand up for beliefs, and the peer pressure to cave in. Things did work out for Kiki, but she was willing to risk losing her new friends to do the right thing.
This is a wonderful life lesson, and a great way to open the door to talk with your child about facing similar situations--and stating they might have to stand alone like Kiki was willing to do. It is the perfect time to tell them you will support them when things are hard, and the importance of family standing together.
I highly recommend this five-plus-star book as a great tool for remaining faithful to your beliefs, even then it is hard. Children ages four through nine will enjoy this book--it is not to be missed!
