Description
Posey is really nervous about starting first grade. Instead of getting walked to her classroom, her mom has to drop her off at the Kiss-and-Go Lane. Then she'll have to walk into school and face the Monster of the Blue Hall all by herself. Worst of all, she has to do it without the one thing that always makes her feel brave and special: the tutu that turns her into the Pink Princess. But when Posey inspires her new teacher to throw a first-day parade in which all the kids are invited to wear whatever makes them feel the most comfortable, first grade starts to look a lot more promising.

Posey will charm readers just graduating from easy-to-reads (and from kindergarten). Make reading sparkle with all of the Princess Posey chapter books!

        May 3, 2010
        Readers anxious about starting school will identify with the ingenuous heroine of Greene’s (the Moose and Hildy books) novel, first in a series. Fancying herself the “Pink Princess,” Posey dreads the first day of school: she can’t wear her beloved tutu, and her mother will be dropping her off outside instead of escorting her to the classroom. She accuses her mother of abandoning her, then credibly lashes out at her brother (“It’s all your fault.... I was the baby till you got here”). After the boys next door tell her that a monster haunts the school, Posey’s grandfather assuages her fears, but it’s her teacher who has the solution to both problems, inviting her students to wear their “favorite clothes” to start the year with a dress-up parade. Greene’s simple sentences are distinguished by punchy dialogue and sentiments that do justice to a range of emotions, from frustration and nervousness to unadulterated glee. They should go a long way to easing the worries of readers embarking on a new stage in their school life. Final art not seen by PW. Ages 5–8. May)

        Grades K-2 Author of the Sophie Hartley series of middle-grade chapter books, Greene now offers a series for early chapter-book readers. Nervous about starting first grade in the fall, Posey spends the summer wearing the pink tutu that makes her feel special and worrying that this year she must walk into school and down the first-grade hall alone. It doesnt help that her neighbors, Nick and Tyler, love to tease her about the monster and snakes in that hallway. Midway through the book, Posey jabs Nicks arm with a stick to find out whether the monster really turned his blood to ink. The chapter ends there, leaving readers to wonder whether she drew blood, got into trouble, and/or apologized. The next chapter opens with her sympathetic grandfather drawing out her concerns as he drives her to the store for ice cream. Apart from those lingering questions, the story and illustrations offer a satisfying portrayal of Posey and her world. The black-and-white illustrations are appealing, and the sparkly pink tutu on the book jacket will draw just the right audience.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2010, American Library Association.)

        First-grade teacher Miss Lee compliments Posey on her tutu, which Posey's mom won't let her wear to school. The next day Miss Lee invites Posey and her classmates to wear their favorite clothes to show how they "are all so different and creative." Generously illustrated, very short chapters capture the concerns of primary graders.

        Posey is shy when she and Gramps bump into her new teacher just days before the start of school. First-grade teacher Miss Lee is friendly, though, and compliments Posey on her tutu-the one that Posey's mom won't let her wear to school. When Miss Lee sympathizes and says, "It's too bad we can't wear our favorite old clothes to school," Posey, emboldened, asks, "Why can't we?" The next day a letter arrives from Miss Lee inviting Posey and her classmates to wear their favorite clothes on the first day to show how they "are all so different and creative." Generously illustrated, very short chapters capture the concerns of primary graders. Posey, for instance, can't stop worrying about the "Kiss and Go Lane": parents walk kindergartners to class, but first-grader Posey must "kiss her mom good-bye. And open the car door. And walk into the school. All by herself." The pictures illustrate key moments: Miss Lee squatting down to look shy Posey in the eye; at book's conclusion, the first graders variously and happily dressed in pajamas, a soccer uniform, dinosaur slippers, and more. Six-year-old Posey, in a sparkly pink tutu on the cover, will catch the attention of young emerging readers. Like Miss Lee's invitation, this new chapter book series will be warmly received by youngsters looking for something comfortable and familiar to begin with.
