Marion is a member of
the Critter Club, a group of girls who helps take care of animals in a barn by their
house. But each girls has their own interests outside of the club, Marion for
example, loves fashion. When a competition comes up for clothing styling,
Marion makes a new friend. Is this a true friend, or is Marion just being used
for her fashion advice. Do the frogs the club is caring for have any advice for
her?
Coming into this
series at book #8 wasn't the best, looks like its better to start with book 1.
But I thought it was high interest, fun, and sweet.There are great illustrations, with a modern style. I can think of a dozen or
more students that would adore this book, both for the pet component, and the
fashion. It’s a great transition book from early reader to chapter books, and
this level can be difficult to find quality books for. I would add this series
to my library.
