After her best friend moves away, Jen joins the Lunch Bunch gang at school and experiences a new culinary adventure every day in this Level 2 Planet Reader by a best-selling author.
Lee Wardlaw swears that her first spoken word was 'kitty'. Since then, she's shared her life with 30 cats (not all at the same time!) and published 30 award-winning books for young readers, selling more than one million copies world wide.
Lee's books include Won Ton - A Cat Tale Told in Haiku, winner of the Lee Bennett Hopkins Children's Poetry Award and the Myra Cohn Livingston Poetry Award (among others); Won Ton and Chopstick, an NCTE Notable Poetry Book; and 101 Ways to Bug Your Friends and Enemies, recipient of the 2012 Forward National Literature Award for Humor.
Lee has a B.A. in Education, an AMI-Primary Diploma from the Montessori Institute of San Diego, and is finishing her M.Ed.
A former teacher, Lee continues to keep up-to-date with children, tweens, and teens by presenting frequently at schools, libraries, bookstores, and conferences. She lives in Santa Barbara, CA, with two dog-disdaining cats.
Was an easy/quick read that could be read by child in 1st/second grade. It talks about what we will do to fit in with a new group of friends. This story could relate to a lot of what children go through in schools today. I loved how in the end the author actually put in the book the recipe for Dinosaur Pizza.
