Reviews

“Gooney Bird doesn’t need much help putting herself on the map. She’ll be famous for years to come.”-Kirkus “In this fifth book in the series, Lowry deals with the ticklish classroom issue of students gloating about vacations. She (and Mrs. Pidgeon and Gooney Bird) handle it well, helping young readers reflect on the competitive chatter that often strains the fabric of a class right before holidays.”-Horn Book  “Witty and perceptive in equal measure, the book features fine-tuned dialogue, kid-friendly illustrations, and a strongly realized classroom setting.” –Booklist
