Be yourself like Molly Lou Melon no matter what a bully may do. Molly Lou Melon is short and clumsy, has buck teeth, and has a voice that sounds like a bullfrog being squeezed by a boa constrictor. She doesn't mind. Her grandmother has always told her to walk proud, smile big, and sing loud, and she takes that advice to heart. But then Molly Lou has to start in a new school. A horrible bully picks on her on the very first day, but Molly Lou Melon knows just what to do about that.

Children and their grownups alike will ADORE this

Illustrator David Catrow had me from the cover, with his depiction of the elfin Molly Lou Melon. So author Patty Lovell’s story about the tiny, buck-toothed girl and her loving grandmother, who urges her to be who she is, was just icing on the cake. No matter what happens, Molly maintains her confidence and does her best. She handles a bully with the aplomb I wish I had! Children and their grownups alike will ADORE this picture book!

Wildly Unique!

Before the spine is even cracked, “Stand Tall, Molly Lou Melon” captivates. Little Molly Lou, with her unkept hair and round eyes, stands confidently on the book’s cover, inviting, readers into her world. As the pages are turned, this becomes obvious: although she is wildly unique, Molly Lou never wants to be anyone but herself, buck teeth and all. Well done, Patty Lovell and David Catrow. You’ve created something that all little girls should read!
