These sentiments are brought forward through my main character, Yaz, Way Past Jealous. I want kids to know they shine whether or not anyone comments or notices. I want kids to hold onto their strengths and their power in tough moments. Honestly, it is also a big reason why I write at all. One of Debby’s pictures even got put up on the board for the “Stars of the Week.” Now Yaz’s jealousy is making her think ugly things, and even act mean! How can she get past jealous? This sweet, engaging story speaks to social and emotional learning and guides kids as they learn to acknowledge and manage feelings of jealousy.īeing able to remind readers that they are stars just for being themselves is a true joy as an author. Everyone is giving Debby and her drawings all the attention. Yaz loves to draw, but no one ever notices her pictures. Sometimes, being jealous can make everything feel worse.
