Allard, Harry Starlight Goes to Town, pictures by George Booth. Farrar, Straus, Giroux, 2008. PICTURE BOOK.
EL - ESSENTIAL
Starlight (aka Ethel Fae) feels too big for the henhouse and barnyard, so when her fairy godmother (chicken) arrives, she follows her dreams in a very unusual way (I am not giving it away). Across the ocean and back to the states, Starlight dreams large and finds a way to get the life she wants. This book is too, too funny!! The whole story is fresh and Starlight's antics in the pictures are priceless. I can see her having her own Saturday morning cartoon.
