Review

Piper Green, second grader, is back, riding a lobster boat to school and again dealing with plans that don't quite pan out the way she expects. in this second title of the Piper Green and the Fairy Tree series, Piper knows about the fairy tree in her yard and its unusual ability to surprise and provide her with something useful. Piper's day starts out with three lucky events( in her opinion) but with the addition of a fourth lucky event, everything begins to unravel. This second book of the series doesn't disappoint. It has the same authentic, smart dialogue, fast paced story telling and satisfying ending as the first book. Again the full page pen and ink illustrations add to the action and atmosphere of the story.

Overall Book Score: very good
