Piper Green and the Fairy Tree

(2) 1-3 Illustrated by Qin Leng. For Peek-a-Boo Island resident Piper Green, starting second grade involves taking a lobster boat to school and insisting on wearing green monkey-face earmuffs. Soon Piper is in trouble with new teacher Ms. Arabella. Very brief chapters and frequent illustrations swiftly advance the story, as does Piper's quirky first-person narration. How the earmuff standoff is resolved makes for a satisfying, funny early chapter book.
