What's Bugging Bailey Blecker?

197 pp. | Dutton | February, 2011 | Trade ISBN 978-0-525-42286-0 $16.99
(2) 4-6 Fifth-grader Bailey, a Maine islander, must not only cope with going to a new school on the mainland but also with the ferocious itchiness on her head: lice. Donovan crafts a solidly realistic school story with lots of humor. The island setting and background story of a Revolutionary War reenactment add interest, and both child and adult characters ring true.
