 Sassafras leads the way to higher self esteem March 15, 2000
28 out of 28 found this review helpful
Sassafras is a young skunk who feels different, unliked, and embarrassed for the fact that he sometimes STINKS. He learns that every living creature has something about him or her that is different, but different can also mean unique and wonderful. With the help of friends, family, and others with problems of their own, he learns that the stink is what makes him special, even heroic. All kids are special. They just need to be told. Sassafras is funny and fun and teaches us all a very important lesson. Acceptance.

Terrific little book for your primary grade reader. The illustrations are warm, and the skunk is adorable. A great complement to this book is Why Can't I Spray Today? by Francine Poppo Rich, which is a beautifully written and illustrated children's book for the younger reader (ages 2-5).
