Author An Swerts builds this story from a real-life dropped tart by souls chef Taka Kondo that led to a world-renowned dessert but substitutes a young girl who becomes too fearful to try much of anything until she receives good advice from her teacher and her nonna and has her own experience with a dropped tart. An excellent picture book for ages 3-7. - <i>Hallsville Intermediate School </i></p> <p>Lemon Tart . . . two delicious words that make all the difference in the world for little Lucy, who is going through a tough time. Her cheerful disposition has changed, practically overnight, to one of worry and doubt. This story has a wonderful lesson on the importance of self-esteem, and how it affects the day to day living of everyone, especially children. Life isn't always a bowl of sunshine, and this book teaches children that it is okay to make mistakes along the way. Dare I say it? This book teaches children that when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. It takes a sensitive topic like low self-esteem, and shows that it can be overcome with caring and love. - <i>A-PLUS Literature</i></p> <p>Great addition to libraries wanting to provide SEL books for kids and primary teachers, in accessible text with soft pastel illustrations. - <i>LOPL Oregon</i></p> <p>This was such a sweet about a girl named Lucy. She is constantly worrying and this is causing her to not take any chances. Until one mistake teaches her the importance of perseverance! - <i>Johnston County Schools</i></p> <p>I really enjoyed this book. I requested to review thinking of a little one in my life who doesn't speak to anyone outside of the family. I think this will be great for their baby brain anxiety levels and to illustrate everything will be okay -- and the message of Lemon Tart is absolutely beautiful for anyone suffering from anxiety - <i>Barnes & Noble bookseller</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>An Swerts</b> grew up in Geel, Belgium.
