Alice from Dallas

40 pp. | Abrams | March, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4197-0790-2 $16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Ard Hoyt. Alice, who lives in Dallas, Pennsylvania, loves to pretend to be a Wild West cowgirl until Lexis from Texas (or is she?) comes to town and threatens to usurp her. A high-noon playground showdown leads to an injury and an inevitable but satisfying partnership. This mild rivalry-turned-friendship tale conveys its message smoothly, while Hoyt's watercolor and pen illustrations embody the "Yippee ki-yay!" spirit.
