Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Lizzie makes her first appearance in this chronicle of an on-again, off-again friendship between two very different girls. Since her adventures with colored eyewear, she has headlined in two sequels: Lizzie Logan Gets Married and Lizzie Logan, Second Banana. Ages 7-10.
Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.
From School Library Journal
Grade 3-5?Heather isn't sure that she wants to be friends with Lizzie. On the one hand, Lizzie pretends to be a smoker; tells her that there is a man-eating spider plant in her house; and gets jealous when she wants to spend time with Sara, her friend from her old neighborhood. Then again, Lizzie has wonderful ideas, like fishing in a puddle and planning a Fourth of July parade. And when Heather needs her, she comes through, arranging a funeral for her pet cricket. Nicely paced, with large type and occasional black-and-white cartoon illustrations, this book will appeal to reluctant readers. Spinelli's sympathy for these girls lifts the characterization above the level that's usually found in easy chapter books. In describing her feelings for the father who deserted her, Lizzie says, "I imagine the truth. He's just some guy who doesn't care." Any child who has been friends with a Lizzie will understand and appreciate this story.?Connie Parker, Cuyahoga County Public Library, Cleveland, OH
