10 Secrets of Being a Lady

10 Secrets of Being a Lady by Sheba Matheu

10 Secrets of Being a Lady by Sheba Matheu is a touching story of a mother imparting wisdom to her young daughter. There are 2 characters in 10 Secrets of Being a Lady, the mother and the daughter - young Ava. I would say Ava is elementary age, maybe a 1st grader. She's fun, spunky and full of life.

Peyton is a 1st grader and we spend a lot of ...
