Not So Tall for Six

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Frank W. Dormer. Kylie Bell is a short first grader who frequently runs up against "new bully-boy" Rusty Jacks. Recalling her family motto, "Brave and smart and big at heart," Kylie musters the courage to confront Rusty. However, it's an act of kindness that wins over the bully. The text's storytelling twang and illustrations' terra cotta hues give the tale a Southwestern flavor.
