Illustrated by
Peggy Collins.
After a few classmates turn down her offer to play fairies, Leah is so upset that she doesn’t notice Allie, who is also looking for a playmate. Leah falls to the floor and laments her fate before noticing Allie. The two then spend time together making fairy wings and playing pretend and eventually are joined by another classmate. Collins’s digitally created illustrations of Leah’s dramatics balance the difficulty of forging friendships with humor.
