Bookroo's summary
Mary Beth feels out of place in her ogre family—she's neither green nor scary. But when a challenge arises, she must discover her hidden strengths to defend her loved ones. Can she find her voice and prove what it truly means to be an ogre? This whimsical tale explores identity and courage in unexpected ways.
From the publisher
Mary Beth doesn’t quite fit in with her family of ogres. She’s not green. She’s not gross. She’s not scary. But when Mary Beth has to stand up for herself and her family, she finds out she knows more than she thinks about how to be a proper ogre. This hilarious modern fable about belonging and finding one’s voice is sure to entertain readers of all ages.
