Synopsis

Hardly anyone noticed young Sally McCabe.
She was the smallest girl in the smallest grade.

But Sally notices everything--from the twenty-seven keys on the janitor's ring to the bullying happening on the playground. One day, Sally has had enough and decides to make herself heard. And when she takes a chance and stands up to the bullies, she finds that one small girl can make a big difference.

Grammy-nominated children's musician Justin Roberts, together with vibrant artwork from award-winning illustrator Christian Robinson, will have readers cheering for young Sally McCabe.

Review:

Praise for The Smallest Girl in the Smallest Grade

"This effective rhyming book by kiddie-rock star Roberts takes on the subjects of bullying, teasing, and excluding others... This is a serious topic given serious treatment, and it should be ideal for initiating discussions."--Booklist
