Noni can do a lot of different things except say "no," until one day when she is pushed too far by her friend Susie. - Random House, Inc.
Noni can do many things: she can give her baby brother his bottle, she can help her mother in the kitchen, and she can even walk over to her friend Susieâs house. But Noni just canât say âno.â When she was very small, it was easy saying ânoâ to everybody, but now that she has a best friend, she wants to please. Noni canât say ânoâ to her friend, even when it means she has to hand over a precious toy, or when it means agreeing to a hideous haircut, or even giving up her bed at a sleepover. But when Noni finally finds her voice, the consequences are not what she â or the reader â expects.
Heather Hartt-Sussmanâs story, complemented by the playful illustrations of Geneviève Côté, is a comforting exploration of friendship and of the importance of trusting oneâs own judgment. Many children (as well as many adults) will root for Noni as she learns that you can stand up for yourself and still be a good friend.
