Product Description
Everyone remembers Lilly (whose purple purse is so enviable) and Chrysanthemum (whose name, beloved at first, becomes a burden). It's the "star quality" so characteristic of all Kevin Henkes's small heroes and heroines that seems to inspire children to celebrate their own uniqueness. Charming humor fills these winning stories, each brightly illustrated by the Caldecott artist. Includes Chester's Way; Chrysanthemum; Jessica; Julius, the Baby of the World; Lily's Purple Plastic Purse; Owen; Sheila Rae, the Brave; and Wemberly Worried.
