I think this book is showing a little girl who shows great bravery,smartness,and toughness.And her name is Serafina.Also,if I had to rate it 1 – 10 I would say 8 because it was not to bad at all.So the most of the begining is about how she gets a new baby brother and you have to find out his name.But the other brother things happend.I hope you like Serafinas Promise.

Have you ever wanted to do something you don’t have the money for? Serafina wants to go to school but her family can’t afford the uniform. She decided to grow a garden and sell the plants. This story was exciting and sad. Will Serafina raise enough money to go to school?
