Lizard Meets Ivana the Terrible

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Stephanie Roth. Shy third-grader Lizzie learns how to stick up for her friends when she's assigned as journal buddy to fiercely independent Ivana. Despite obvious didactic passages on friendship, the joy of reading, and the evils of cheating, the girls are so sympathetic and creative that their success in the Supersonic Reader contest is a pleasure to follow. Numerous illustrations make the book especially accessible.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
