Synopsis: Believing in yourself isn't always easy. Marky learns that firsthand when the other woodland fairies make fun of her. They laugh at her one small wing and say mean things about her fiery-red hair, her glasses, and her freckles.
It is hurtful, but through Marky's determination, she helps them understand that everyone has exceptional qualities. Some are visible. Some are invisible. Through her kindness, Marky teaches her friends about self-love, confidence, acceptance, positivity, and compassion. She reminds them they are magnificent.
Young readers of all ages will learn to believe in themselves and the importance of treating everyone with respect and kindness.

"Magnificent" book! Colorful illustrations and impactful text. From the discussion questions to the resource guide, this book is first rate when dealing with the difficult topics of inclusion and bullying. I made so many connections to this story and wish I had it to read when I was going through elementary school. A must for every classroom library!
