Clementine is NOT having a good week.
On Monday she’s sent to the principal's office for cutting off Margaret’s hair. On Tuesday, Margaret’s mother is mad at her. On Wednesday, she’s sent to the principal, again. On Thursday, Margaret stops speaking to her. Then Friday starts with yucky eggs and only gets worse. And by Saturday, even her mother is mad at her.
Okay, fine. Clementine is having a DISASTROUS week. But maybe she can find a way to make it better . . .
This “frequently amusing” chapter book by the author of Pax, illustrated by a two-time Caldecott Honor winner, is a modern classic, first in the series that’s been keeping readers engaged and laughing for years as they follow the hijinks of Clementine, a clever and quirky third grader who’s the most spectacular friend around (Booklist).
“Fans of Judy Moody will welcome this portrait of another funny, independent third-grader.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Middle-grade readers will sympathize with Clementine’s conflicted feelings about her friend and her family, and laugh out loud at her impulsive antics . . . Give this to readers of Cleary and Blume and cross your fingers for more.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
