It’s a special day. Louise’s new baby cousin is being presented to Nana, the eldest member of Louise’s family.
Louise knows that, as always, Nana will have special gifts and sayings for all the children in the family. However, when Louise is given her gift, she hates it, and she embarrasses her momma by saying so right out loud!
How Louise comes to realize that her gift is special — and so is she — is the theme of this richly illustrated and affirming story of one independent and talented young girl.
