Mae and the Tall Ray is a heartwarming story about self-acceptance, empathy, and learning that true confidence comes from within. Little Mae is a quiet second-grader who is tired of feeling small. When she decides to invent a magical tall ray, Mae grows taller and taller...and taller. But even as she towers over her classmates, Mae still feels small. It's not until she meets a lonely boy at school that Mae discovers what it really means to feel tall. Mae's wacky story will remind young readers what they can do when they feel small. Both inspirational and entertaining, Mae and the Tall Ray is perfect for ages 4-8 (or perhaps 4-88).
