by Megan McDonald, Candlewick, 2011
Meet the Sisters Club: twelve-year-old Alex, aspiring actress and born drama queen; eight-year-old Joey, homework lover and pioneer wannabe; and smack in the middle, ten-year-old Stevie, the glue that holds them together - through dinner disasters, disputes over stolen lucky sweaters, and Alex's going gaga over her leading man. Playfully weaving Stevie's narration with Alex's scripts, Joey's notebook entries, and hilarious elements such as "How to Swear in Shakespeare" and "Dear Sock Monkey" letters, this hugely engaging series showcases Megan McDonald's ear for dialogue, comic timing, and insight into the ever-changing dynamics of sisterhood. Suggested for grades 4-6.
This series is shelved in the fiction section at call number F MCD.
This series is extremely funny, intriguing and I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend it!! Thank you, Mrs. Hamilton, for putting such great books on the library blog.
