    About this ebook

    This book is the eighth rhyming story in the Lessons Learned series.
    Lisa is the youngest sister in her family and deals with her personal version of hand-me-down blues.
    She's feisty, level-headed and understands the reasons for her situation. Lisa isn't angry or disappointed, in fact, she's happy to be able to be her true self.
