This heartwarming story follows Matilda, a little girl who loses her voice after being teased and learns to find her confidence again. It's a simple but uplifting read about loving who you are, and I enjoyed seeing Matilda stand up for herself! Would definitely recommend this to all children.

"I wear confidence like a second skin"
This was so cute yet a powerful read. I'm glad we're talking about things like confidence with children at such a young age. It can leave a deep positive impact on children. The protagonist is adorable and relatable. It also subtly addresses bullying and dealing with bullies with self-confidence. Recommended.

I thought that this was a lovely positive little story.

In the book we meet Matilda, who is a little girl who loses her voice after being teased. We follow her as she learns to find her confidence again.

The book is a simple idea with some lovely illustrations – it is a positive and uplifting read about loving who you are and being the best you can – and standing up for yourself.

It is 4 stars from me for this one – highly recommended!

This is a children's picture book about Matilda, a little girl who has to deal with bullying at school, and her self-confidence is torn down because of it. At home, she bursts into tears in front of her mom, and explains the situation to her. I won't give away more than that so I don't spoil the story.
It's heart-warming to see Matilda gain confidence and feel more comfortable in her skin as the story goes on. It has an important and sweet message that will surely resonate with a lot of kids. It also has really beautiful, vibrant art that makes the story come to life.

Wonderful story about learning to be confident and the importance of the friends and family around you. It was a lot of fun to read and the children really enjoyed it! I believe the message is such a great one, that should be shared with children growing up.
