Horn Book (Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2018)

In her latest chapter books, Texas girl Kylie Jean, an aspiring beauty queen, competes in a cooking TV show and learns how to fish for catfish with her grandfather. These overly sweet Pollyanna stories lack tension and three-dimensional characters; cartoony pink-highlighted illustrations and fishing/cooking tips are sprinkled throughout. Discussion and activity prompts and a recipe are appended to each volume. Glos.
