(4) K-3 When April's big sister gets engaged to Harold, April hates the idea of losing her. She plays pranks on Harold in an attempt to scare him away, but the good-natured groom takes it all in stride, and when April has one last chance to ruin the wedding, she saves the day instead. The story is somewhat flat, but a thin black line adds expression and detail to the simple watercolors.
