Jailyn Simpson and the Day the Shine Changed [Large Print]

By Hafsah Brown

Jailyn Simpson used to think shine meant being noticed.

He worked hard, earned great grades, and felt proud of who he was, until a new student arrived and suddenly everyone's attention shifted. For the first time in a long while, Jailyn felt invisible.

But when an unexpected conversation reveals that his new classmate is struggling too, Jailyn discovers something surprising: everyone shines in different ways.

As two boys learn to help each other, study together, and laugh a lot along the way, Jailyn realizes that confidence doesn't come from popularity. It comes from knowing who you are and finding someone who truly understands you.

Jailyn Simpson and the Day the Shine Changed is a heartfelt social-emotional story about self-esteem, jealousy, friendship, and the power of being seen for who you really are.

Perfect for classrooms, families, and young readers learning that sometimes, the brightest shine comes from within.
