Cooper, Ilene Little Lucy Goes to School, illustrated by John Kanzler. Random House, 2014. $3.99. Content: G.
When Bobby forgets to take his lunchbox to school, his mom brings it by. But she's also brought their puppy, Lucy, who escapes so she can run the halls of Bobby's school. As many people remind the excited pup, though, dogs don't belong in school.
Although this is a cute story, and some children may find Lucy's antics humorous, the text feels long enough to become a bit tedious. Also, both the gender roles and artwork seem so old-fashioned that I had to look to see if the book was a reprint from several decades ago. Nope. 2014.
Pre-K, EL (K-3) -- OPTIONAL. Reviewer: Caryn
