It Makes Me Feel Good tells of a little girl who copes with her fears of the first few days of school by dressing in outfits that make her feel good. Without realizing it, she starts a trend in her classroom. Since children are naturally curious about affirming their similarities and differences and gaining acceptance, this book permits the reader to see the power felt by a little girl who chooses to wear outfits that are special to her. This book concentrates on making choices based on preferences.

I Go High tells of a little girl who ingeniously plans and attempts to get to the cookie jar. The little girl uses her imagination to creatively attempt to reach for the cookie jar, which is always kept on top of the refrigerator. Since children are naturally creative and use their imaginations, readers will identify with the character in this book, and adults who read the story to children will find her one who will cause them to both cherish the past and embrace the future. This story freezes time for anyone who has used his or her imagination to reach high and work hard for something. The ending emphasizes that we need to work hard to get to the things that we really want. There is also a favorite cookie recipe included at the end.
