In 'The Playground Queen,' the main character, Kya experiences a journey of growth as she deals with social issues and is uplifted by her peers.I truly understand the beauty of children’s books and how they provide the ability to creatively paint a picture of the imaginative future, but I also love the idea of painting a picture of the beauty of what actually presently exists. The message of 'The Playground Queen' teaches our young children the reality that they may experience some form of rejection within their peer group. It teaches them to lean on people in their community to uplift them, and lastly, it teaches the importance of forgiveness.
