Synopsis
Lilly, the fabulous white mouse of LILLY'S PURPLE PLASTIC PURSE, is extremely excited because she's certain that her teacher Mr. Slinger will ask her to be the flower girl at his wedding. As it's going to be the most important day of her life, Lilly spends hours practicing walking down the aisle with a pretend bouquet, shod in her bright red boots. But when Mr. Slinger gently tells her that his niece, Ginger, is the flower girl, will Lilly be able to settle for flower-girl assistant? This smart, funny picture book is illustrated with Kevin Henkes's delightful watercolors. Henkes is the 2005 winner of the Caldecott Medal for KITTEN'S FIRST FULL MOON. A 2006 Publishers Weekly Book of the Year.
Industry Reviews
"Ounce for ounce the equal in chutzpah to Falconer's Olivia, the heroine will draw laughs in nearly every scene...."
(02/20/2006)
"Henkes manages once again to present Lilly in all of her wonderful, flawed glory, and readers will continue to love her dearly for it...As always, Henkes's illustrations perfectly capture every delightful nuance of Lilly's persona...."
