Meet Angelica, a whirlwind of energy and heart, whose vibrant spirit lights up every room. Nicknamed "Peanut Butter Angelica" for her loyalty to her best friend Charles at the cafeteria's 'No Peanut Table, ' she's a force of kindness and courage. Through her playful antics and thoughtful gestures-like giving away her scooter to a friend in need-Angelica shows Charles the power of a growth mindset, embracing failure as a path to learning. Charles, shy and hesitant, watches in awe as Angelica fearlessly tries new things and lifts others up. But when he summons the courage to step out of his comfort zone, he discovers a surprising truth: Angelica draws strength from him too. Together, they learn that true friendship makes them both braver, stronger, and better. A heartwarming tale of friendship, courage, and mutual inspiration, Peanut Butter Angelica reminds us that the best friends help us find the best in ourselves.
