Amy the Red Panda Is Writing the Best Story in the World

40 pp. | Greenwillow | November, 2017 | Trade ISBN 978-0-06-233848-8 $17.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Ruth Chan. Red panda Amy's attempt at storytelling is interrupted by the plushie-looking animals who overran this book's likewise-meta predecessor, Mervin the Sloth Is About to Do the Best Thing in the World. The all-dialogue-balloon text and the suspended black letters with which Amy must write create some visual chaos, but she's ultimately pleased with her work; many readers will be, too.
