133,95 kr. Holly is having a miserable, rotten day! She forgot her "show" for Show and Tell. She dropped her sandwich on the floor. She had to wait and wait and wait because Mom was the very last car in the pickup line, and she's soaked to the bone from the rain. Nothing good has happened to her all day! When Holly climbs into the backseat of the family car, she gives her mom an earful. She doesn't even bother to acknowledge the cupcake and juice Mom has waiting for her.

Mom really doesn't want to spend the car ride home listening to a litany of her daughter's complaints and grievances. To lighten the mood, she convinces Holly to play a game of Count the Red Cars. But when they arrive home, Mom doesn't ask Holly how many red cars she saw. Instead, she asks Holly how many yellow cars she spotted. The game was never really about cars and colors. It was actually a lesson about what you choose to see, and now Holly will never look at life the same way again! Author Gina Prosch explores how easy it can be for kids to become so fixated on problems and disappointments that they ignore or simply miss all the good, funny, and joyful things that are happening around them.

You Find What You Look For is the first title in the Holly's Choice book series.
