Third grader Katharine means well. Regardless, she frequently finds herself "visiting" the principal's office and explaining her way out of messes. These usually involve frenemy Vanessa, whom she calls "Miss Priss-A-Poo" (one of many Junie B.-like language affectations: "fab-u-lo-so," "zip-a-zoom," etc.). Though Katharine's adventures are bland, her stories are easy to read and the situations are relatable.

Katharine Carmichael's third grade class is putting on a play, Kids Rock in Space! But there's a problem: Katharine has stage fright-itis. Katharine hopes advice from Penelope Parks, her idol, will turn her into a fab-u-lo-so actor. When she gets the part of the sun--the brightest star by far--she gets a bad case of sassitude . . . just like Penelope! Will the big day prove once and for all that Katharine is the biggest star by far? Calico Chapter Books is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO Group. Grades 2-8.
