Glue feels invisible until Glitter helps her discover her inner sparkle.
Glue feels overshadowed by her vibrant friends, longing to be noticed. When Glitter arrives, a dazzling new friend, they embark on a creative journey. Can Glue find her unique shine and step out from the shadows? This charming tale of friendship and self-discovery encourages embracing one's inner sparkle, making it a delightful read for any school day.
From the award-winning creators of When Pencil Met Eraser comes a tale about underappreciated Glue, who longs to stand out, and soon meets a new friend, Glitter, who helps bring out her inner sparkle, confidence, and creativity. Perfect for back to school and all year round! Glue loves making art with her friends–especially pasting on googly eyes!–but sometimes she feels invisible. Instead of always being stuck in the background, Glue wants to be noticed like Pencil and colorful like the Markers! How can she find a way to stand out? When a new friend named Glitter arrives in a swirl of sparkles, Glue and Glitter team up to make something completely original and help Glue shine like the star she truly is. Karen Kilpatrick & Germán Blanco’s When Glitter Met Glue spotlights art’s unsung hero–a glue bottle–in a hilarious and clever story that encourages self-acceptance and spurs us all to recognize our inner shimmer. A perfect gift for teachers and the first day of school.
