Francine and Her Special Talents helps children discover and explore their own unique talents. Francine's Aunt Nancy and cousins are coming for a visit. Usually, Francine is excited about their arrival, but on this particular day she's down in the dumps. She's tried out for two of her favorite sports at school, but didn't make any of the teams. Her mom tries to console her, but she's still too angry and frustrated to listen. Then, her aunt suggests they take a walk. Francine says yes because her aunt usually finds a way to comfort her. As Francine tells her what happens, her aunt guides her into seeing all the wonderful activities she's interested in and could potentially master. By the end of the story, she and her cousins are sharing their different passions and Francine is excited about and looking forward to focusing on the activities she loves best.
