What is Tall Tilly about?

Tilly is very tall—much taller than her best friend, Molly, and too tall for her bed. She feels awkward and unhappy because she cannot do the things she dreams of, including becoming a ballerina. Tilly wishes she were small and dainty, but her teacher has a clever idea. With encouragement and a fresh way of looking at herself, Tilly begins to discover that being tall can be special too. A gentle story about confidence, friendship and celebrating what makes you different.
