Addy's Surprise: A Christmas Story by Connie Rose Porter

4.0

Happy Black History Month 2017! I hadn't realized when I checked this out from the library that it would coincide with this yearly celebration. Addy Walker is such a special character and is a good influence for young girls, especially ones of color. In Addy's Surprise, I admired her selflessness where she put others' needs before her own. Her choices were rewarded in the end for her good deeds and I can't say that I would have such a courageous action when I was her age. Plus, her Christmas dress is adorable.
