Clarice Bean, Don't Look Now

Clarice Bean, Don't Look Now by, Lauren Child. ISBN-13: 978-0-7636-3935-8

Lauren Child, of Charlie and Lola fame, has written a new series of books with the same quirky humor that has brought her such notoriety. Clarice Bean is for those fans of Charlie and Lola who are now nearly, almost already grown up and needing to be reading much bigger books with chapters and headings. Child, as her name might suggest, speaks the language of children. The books she is writing are the Ramona Quimby books of the modern era.

In this delightful story Clarice Bean offers readers guidance that has been gleaned from her incessant reading of Ruby Redfort Survival Handbook and the Ruby Redfort Spy Guide. Clarice speaks frankly and directly to readers lending an amusing tone to the story, which is filled with Clarice's many worries. Along the way, Clarice talks about moving, divorce, new kids, bullies, family squabbles, acceptance, and friendship. This is most certainly an exceptionally fabulous story that will almost quite certainly help you feel very much better about all of the worries that might quite possibly be bothering you.
