Celebrating both holidays makes Hildy feel different, and Hildy does not like feeling different! What is Hildy supposed to do? MIMI'S STRATEGIES are educational and offer young children a universal new way of solving their problems and having their needs met. The stories are short and simple with the emphasis on the main character's growth outward in concentric circles from her nuclear family setting to her broader school environment. Learning to think strategically rather than reacting emotionally is a valuable problem solving skill that will empower any child throughout his/her life. Competence is the mother of self-esteem. Being resourceful, thinking independently, and behaving assertively are behavior traits that motivate children toward individual thinking, achievement, compassion, and fairness on their journey to adulthood.
