Polka Dot Sue oleh Mary Russo, PhD

Accepting ourselves for who we are despite what others may think or say, gives one a greater sense of self and better equipped to tackle lifes events. Polka Dot Sue is the story of a young girl with polka dot hair, who takes great pride in who she is and conveys this pride with her enjoyment of clothing herself handsomely each day. The story gives a child the sense of self acceptance and pride to show others that a deep sense of self-empowerment come from believing in one self despite obstacles. With the color-emotion awareness, another sense of expressiveness, it encourages the young reader to understand more about feelings with color and self-expression. Also the days of the week provide a framework, which gives an opportunity for more fundamental growth.
