Mia’s Reflections

Ginger Marks captures the heart of a young girl who learns that beauty is not just a pretty face, but rather a giving life. Anticipating a new school with no friends, where she feels alone and ugly, young Mia prepares for her first day. She steps near her Grandmother's old Cheval mirror and there she senses her mama reaching out to her. "You're not ugly," her mama says. "You're beautiful." And she traces all the beautiful services Mia performs in a day. At last her mother appears in the mirror to give a fresh look at Mia's loveliness. Followed by Parent/Teacher resources, this book will fill a young girl's day with thoughts of love and kindness. Dawn Batterbee Miller
