Overview

A young girl, weighed down by a mountain of anxiety, learns to shed negative feelings in this sweet tale about overcoming obstacles. Rita is a collector of many things—seashells, buttons, dried flowers and leaves, feathers, gum wrappers—but the fears, obsessions, and shame that have piled up are not especially welcome. Through engaging text and vivid illustrations, readers will see how Rita rids herself of this unwanted collection. Una muchacha joven, aplastada por una montaña de ansiedad, aprende a liberarse de los sentimientos negativos en este amable cuento sobre la superación. Rita es una coleccionista de muchas cosas—caracoles, botones, flores y hojas secas, plumas y papeles de chicle—pero los miedos, las manías y la vergüenza que se han acumulado no son bien recibidos. A través de un texto agradable e ilustraciones llamativas, los lectores verán cómo Rita se libra de esta colección no deseada.
