Strong Like Me

Beschreibung

"Kamara is super strong, and she loves that--it makes her feel fizzy and zappy! She wins at almost every competition. But lately she's been hearing resentful words from her classmates, and she's starting to doubt herself and the good feeling she gets from her physical ability. With sports day and the Big Race approaching, does Kamara have what it takes to reach the finish line?."--
