Finding confidence under the stage lights

Tameika loves performing and auditions to play Snow White in her school musical. When classmates question whether she fits the role, the story turns to the impact of their words—and to the challenge of holding on to confidence when it falters. Framed around a school production, the picture book connects performance and self-expression with questions of belonging and self-worth.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

Book overview

A picture book for magical yet imperfect children everywhere, written by debut author Ashley Franklin and perfect for fans of such titles as Matthew A. Cherry's Hair Love, Grace Byers's I Am Enough, andLupita Nyong'o's Sulwe.

Tameika is a girl who belongs on the stage. She loves to act, sing, and dance--and she's pretty good at it, too. So when her school announces their Snow White musical, Tameika auditions for the lead princess role.

But the other kids think she's "not quite" right to play the role.

They whisper, they snicker, and they glare.

Will Tameika let their harsh words be her final curtain call?

Not Quite Snow White is a delightful and inspiring picture book that highlights the importance of self-confidence while taking an earnest look at what happens when that confidence is shaken or lost. Tameika encourages us all to let our magic shine.
