So many fun and crazy details! We really enjoyed the LaLa Girls, although would not necessarily want to meet them. Seems perfect for someone who enjoys graphic novels but wants to try chapter books.

Got my first punch of the summer! I finished this before I went on vacation, but I went back in for the first time today. The book, though not strong on its own as I would've liked, has a bit of potential as the start of a series.

And thanks to @mrsmarch for introducing me to Litsy! I feel like I have to lurk for a bit to figure this place out in the meantime...

PenguinInFlight Lurking is half the fun! 😉 Seriously, though...everyone is super nice and helpful. This is definitely an amazing community to be a part of. 💖 7y
