"Never dim your light, girl."
What a beautifully illustrated story about a young girl who finds the strength within herself to be proud of who she is and what she can do.
What a great message for our littles to hear. No matter what, always do your best and shine bright. I can't wait to share this with my grandbabies.

I really enjoyed this book because of the message it sent about letting your light shine bright. The illustrations were also amazing and perfectly captured Anjali's frustration over her best friend talking badly about her and classmates making fun of her.

*I won a copy in a Goodreads giveaway* Such a fun story about being yourself! Anjali learns that she doesn't need to change to be more acceptable to the people around her, which is something everyone needs to learn- kids and grown ups alike! Highly recommend (I'll be getting a copy for all the kids in my life). I think the copy I got was missing a page, as the story started very abruptly with very little context.

Bravo Anjali! is colorful and charming. It's a story about gender stereotypes, friendship break ups, and celebrating our light. The world can tell us what we should do, all the ways we should stop being what they don't expect. But it's up to us to stay true to ourselves, our passions, and our own light. While the ending felt a bit hasty, I loved how thoughtful Bravo Anjali! is.
