What this book teaches-Courage

My review of the book: 

A story about a young girl, Lucy, who has the courage to be herself.  This is a book I wrote and is my bestseller. There are two lessons learned by the two main characters. Lucy learns that it’s alright to be herself and Ralph, the boy who teases Lucy, learns about kindness and  the importance of forgiveness.
