1-3Calico Chapter Books: Growing Up Daisy series.
Illustrated by
M. H. Pilz.
Arizona fourth-grader Daisy loves her family, her friends, and her teacher. In her first four books, she writes an essay, runs for class president, enjoys a museum field trip with her abuela, and organizes her class's contribution to the school festival. The story lines are bland and unsurprising, but some readers may be drawn to amiable, energetic, super-cheerful Daisy. Review covers these Calico Chapter Books: Growing Up Daisy titles: Daisy's Fall Festival, Daisy's Field Trip Adventure, Daisy for President, and Daisy's Summer Essay.
