When things don't turn out as Gigi planned, Dad helps Gigi understand that we each have unique, God-given gifts. When Gigi and her best friend, Frances, try out for The Purple Ponies soccer team, the competition is stiff. DiscouragedBut Dad helps a discouraged Gigi learn that everyone has certain talents and perhaps her talents don't include soccer. As it turns out, Frances makes the team but wants to wait until next year because it wouldn't be as much fun without her best friend on the team.

 | Gigi - The Purple Ponies Apr 12, 2010 |
My daughter loves Gigi!! She got a book of 4 books in 1 a while back, and loves that Gigi is a Princess (just like her)
Gigi: The Purple Ponies by Sheila Walsh
This cute little story is about when Gigi and her bff Frances decide that they are going to play soccer!! Now, not everyone who tries out will make the team, but `of course' it will be them. Gigi is sure that she will make the team, even though she has no clue how to play or has ever tried. She just feels sorry for those who won't play. When Gigi doesn't do so well. . . well, it's the balls fault, and Frances, she had a friendly ball.
Gigi's dad is on hand to remind her that everyone has different gifts, and soccer might not be her's
When the list is posted, Frances is on it, but Gigi is not. Frances decides she won't play until Gigi reminds her that they all have special gifts, and that Frances should use her ability to play even if they can't do it together.
In the very end Gigi realizes she is a very good cheerleader and can cheer her friend on. . . they both get to do what they both do best!!
** Can you tell yet that I"m having fun!?!?
** I reviewed this book on my own and have received no compensation from this site, Sheila Walsh or Thomas Nelson

| We ot this bok for our Grandaughter for Christmas. We and she enjoy the booka lot. She looks alot like Gigi and she plays soccer. | | | | We Heart Gigi! Feb 10, 2009 |
My kids are huge fans of David Shannon books (as am I). They have them all, and so I was searching for something new that would be equally appealing. It is difficult to find adventure books whose style and story-telling are just right for early readers. Most tend to be too simple, boring and predictable. They sadly lack originality... especially among Christian books. I was pleasently surprised when I came across Sheila Walsh's "Gigi" series.
Gigi is fantastic... a spunky little girl who, along with her best friend Frances, finds herself in new situations that any little girl can relate to. My 6 year old daughter is entertained by the stories and enjoys Gigi's slightly dramatic, but big-hearted personality. (With good reason! LOL!)
As for "The Purple Ponies" in particular, this book quickly became one of my daughter's favorites since she played her first season of soccer this year. Again, I love that these stories are based on age-appropriate situations. My children become very involved in the books, and the stories help them handle the events that happen in their own lives. As well as get them excited about reading!
I also bought a few "Will" (Gigi's male counterpart) books for my 5 and 8 year old sons. They love them as well... full of fun adventures and fantastic illustrations!
I'm very pleased I purchased "Gigi" and "Will". They are going to be in our family library for quite some time, as my kids want to read them over and over again.
