Very interesting read. I liked the fact that Tobi's parents celebrated Dare's achievement, and also supported Tobi when she came up with the idea of baking a cake to surprise her big brother. Studies have shown that when parents celebrate a child's success, the child is more likely to succeed in other aspects of life.
