Chrysanthemum by Kevin Henkes

The book Chyrsanthemum is about a girl named Chrysanthemum, and she gets teased by her schoolmates almost all the time.

And then one day they went to musical school and there was a woman named Mrs. Twinkle, and her name could scarcely fit on her nametag like Chrysanthemum's, and her name was named after a flower, like Mrs. Twinkle.

And then when Jo, Rita and Victoria learn about it, they stop teasing Chrysanthemum, and start being nice to her instead of bullies. And then one day Mrs. Twinkle had a baby and named her Chrysanthemum.

Note from Mom:
Kevin Henkes is one of our favorite kid's book authors, and this is one of his best. You just can't help loving Cyrsanthemum, as well as her parents! A great book to help teach kids to love their individuality.
