This is wonderful beginning chapter book, with a fabulous cover which will entice young readers with an infinity for feminine pictures and books. In this book Posey learns that she has a “cowlick” swirl in her hair and then she tries to tell a classmate that she has one, too. The classmate interprets this as calling her “cow lips”. The teacher helps to clairify the miscommunication and the girls play together happily at the end. This a great realistic fiction which I predict will hold beginning reader’s attention.
