Cute picture book that might help elementary age kids with a move to a new house.

The title doesn’t fit the story at all and the plot was stale. The illustrations are cute and the girls in my class will still read it.

Delightful
A very cute book about being brave and conquering your fears. I’d recommend this book to anyone who is moving their little ones to a new city or school.

I *really* wish this looked more like Philadelphia; it'd make for a much more exciting read for children familiar with the city.

Childrens picture book. This book's title is unfortunate in my opinion. Many of my generation that grew up watching "The Fresh Prince" on TV spent a lot of time learning the words and the beat of the theme song, trying to keep up with the pace as Will Smith rapped on the screen. I thought this book would be a cute book about a modern girl, with words set to that theme song. Nope. A young black girl moves with her family to West Philadelphia. It's a decent story, about not wanting to move but coming to love a new location, but it still felt like a letdown.
