BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
APPEALS TO: SEVERAL
When Darcy goes to visit her cousin Kayla, Kayla invites her for an impromptu sleepover - Darcy’s first. She isn’t sure about the loaned pajamas or the unfamiliar toothpaste. Darcy isn’t sure she wants to stay. A reassuring call to her father does allay a few of her worries.
I haven’t seen a first sleepover book before - I love how sweetly Fortenberry confronts the fears and worries that are familiar to everyone during their first tries at a sleepover. I remember once my daughter had a young friend over and she called her parents to pick us up without anyone telling us she had left!
