One of Cali's bestie friends, Lyvia, is feeling pretty icky. Lyvia had to get glasses, and she is sure the glasses make her look yucky. Lyvia does not even want to wear them, but Cali has a better idea, and a great lesson to teach her bestie: you are be-u-tee-full for simply being you.
The BFF Crew was created with not just every child in mind, but every little girl within each grown woman. We will all look at each member of the BFF Crew and see a piece of ourselves: tomboy, princess, nerd, performer, shy girl, tree climber, cheerleader, bug hunter, and mean girl. Put them all together and you have the perfect recipe for best friends forever, BFFs! You are introduced to the budding relationships of tiny wonders beginning social life in an amazing world. They have much to learn from each other and who they are themselves. Individually, the journey can be a scary and overwhelming one even for the bravest. Together, as BFFs, they are unstoppable forces who will grow up to be presidents, scientists, pro athletes, ballerinas, CEOs, famous singers, and most importantly, compassionate human beings.
I wrote this! I am so proud of this series. Cali is a children's book series spreading inspiration and motivation; starting a movement of self empowerment and acceptance for little girls globally. I couldn't be more thrilled to see more of the series come to life and its positive impact on our young girls.
This book was adorable. It was a great way to get the message across. This is wonderful for kids, pre-readers and beginning readers. The art in this book was phenomenal. I loved Cali and Lyvia. This is a great book to promote as the author called it girl power and self esteem. I look forward to sharing more of this series with my daughter. I read this with my daughter and she had a blast with it.
My 5 year old daughter and I read this book together and we both loved it. It was a very cute story about self esteem and learning that it's ok to be different. I teach my girls that being different is a good thing, it's what makes us unique. We are looking forward to many more stories in the series and meeting the rest of the BF crew.
This is a great short story for kids. It gets right to the point without making the story long and drawn out. A great way to make kids feel better about getting glasses.
