Grinelda the Mad Hatter (Gumboot Books - 2008)
A picture book for ages 4-9

Grinelda is a creative young hat maker who dances to the beat of her own drum. Her classmates fail to appreciate her talents, until a school production of Cinderella gives her a chance to shine. But the "stepsisters" dislike anything different. Will Grinelda's classmates come to appreciate her unique gifts, or will they keep their distance because she's different?
