From the first day six-year-old Margaret walks through the classroom door, she is on a journey filled with wonder, the love of her family, the camaraderie of good friends, and some very important lessons about taking risks, having adventures, and the importance of following the rules. Each charming chapter of Marina Philliou's Margaret, the Friend of My Childhood is sprinkled with an important message about kindness, self-respect, taking responsibility, and being sensitive to others. For Margaret, most of these lessons are learned the hard way. Whether she is leaving the food bin open at her family's campsite, exaggerating about her athletic abilities, or sneaking away with the President's daughter at the White House, she reminds children that there are consequences for breaking the rules...and advantages for being a good listener. A charming book, and a must-read for all children ages 4-8.
