I love Lilly. She lets her emotions get the best of her, just like we all do. Then she has regrets for her actions. What's very nice is that Lilly turns to her parents for help. They understand and help her take steps to rectify the situation. This is a funny book for kids, but it also gives parents and kids a chance to talk about what Lilly did well and what she should have done differently.

Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse is a favorite in our house, from our youngest to the adults. As any parent with young childrent, you can excpet to read a favorite book over and over, almost to the point of going crazy, but this book is a rare treasure because you never giet tried of reading it. The illustrations are sweet and full of humor and emotion. The words flow easily off the tongue, and the moral is something any child or adult can relate to.

The Lilly Doll is adorable and very child friendly. And what's truly great is that er clothes come off and withstand regular use. A great find.

As a second grade teacher, I find that every year Lilly is one of my class's favorite characters. She is bold, funny, and irresistably lovable. I especially love the part where she simply must show off her sparkly purple movie star sunglasses despite the warning from her teacher. Children can really relate to her. Kevin Henkes has truly created a character that will stand the test of time with children.
