I think a little more lighting on here face would help. This image doesn't speak to me that much other than seeing her dressed up, but it doesn't tell me much of a story.
Very very cute! the flyaway hair, the print on the dress. Like your crop too, the hand is kind of distracting but its pretty small, just seems a little out of place, cute little girl though.
Composition is really unflattering, as is the light. If you're going to include the face, it is never a good idea to have it so close to the edges (at least here on DPC).
Though technically OK, this shot comes off as very uninteresting. We can tell from her expression and the little bit of her hand that's visible that she's doing something, but there's no way to know what. Your title calls attention to the red cape, but nothing in the picture really suggests an emotional hook or story to draw me in.
