Review

This book is about a cockroach named Maybelle and her friend Henry who is a flea. The two end up at a school when Maybelle falls asleep in a cake that a woman has made to sell at a bake sale. The whole concept is silly, but the adventure and the accompanying illustrations might interest a young reader.

Overall Book Score: good
