Default Daugther portrait

I'm submitting a shot of my daughter to a competition for a national children's clothing store. I'm open to comments/criticism before I submit. I wanted a simple, natural shot for this submission. What do you like about it? What don't you like about it?

I should point out that the rules specify a 3/4 length or full length pose only (no facial close ups).

Thanks in advance.

this is very nice. I might crop it to loose the right hand edge where we see backgrond, crop it to the edge of the wagon... hopefully you can keep all of her hands & fingers. I would leave the right side if the only way you can crop it is to cut her hands in half.
