It's Not Fair is a thoughtful and gently humorous story about jealousy and perspective. A young girl feels envious when Jack shows up with a brand-new ball and plays soccer with his friends. She watches, feeling left out and resentful. But when Jack invites her to join in, she learns that the joy of being part of the game is more important than the object itself.
