Elisa is tired of being called a crybaby by Russell. Though she gets frustrated, like when she can't wear her favorite red shirt, Elisa's creativity knows no bounds. From trading mittens for a tooth to hosting a winter beach party, she finds joy in the unexpected. Can Elisa prove that her imaginative spirit is stronger than any teasing nickname?
“Crybaby, Crybaby!” That’s what Russell calls Elisa whenever she gets upset, and she hates it. Elisa does get frustrated sometimes, like when she can’t wear her favorite red shirt to school. But that doesn’t mean she can’t do other things – like trade her mittens for a tooth so that the tooth fairy will come sooner, or have a beach party in the middle of winter – whenever and however she wants!
