"How Gemma Found Her Sparkle" Book

Gemma the diamond is tough as can be, but to never get hurt, there was no guarantee… When Gemma leaves home she is faced with trials of many kinds. Her classmates cloud her mind with their judgements and Gemma loses her smile and ultimately her sparkle.  She runs home to visit her grandma Tique and grandmother Tique reminds her of where she came from, how strong she is deep inside and that she is the strongest material on earth - a diamond! Gemma skips back out the door to be greeted by a wildflower and the breeze. Gemma decides that from now on when she is facing a trial she will remember who she truly is and is inspired by the wildflower blooming even in the middle of a bed of rocks.
