Beryl E. Bean: Mighty Adventurer of the Planet

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Amy Bates. Her arm broken, spunky soccer striker Beryl Bean doesn't stay downhearted for long. She makes a new friend on the sidelines, and her wacky stepdad Warren sends her on a museum adventure. Each page is illustrated with chipper color cartoons. The overactive design identifies speakers only by font, but the charismatic narrator and engaging incidents should generate a following for this new series.
