Illustrated by
Heather Ross.
The Parade of Books at school is imminent, and Chloe is torn between dressing like Frankenstein's monster to appease one friend and like a fairy to appease another. After much agonizing and crafting, Chloe splits the difference with a Frankenfairy costume. The writing is particularly sharp, and readers just may find Chloe's DIY ethos, documented in the high-energy illustrations, contagious.
