You Will Be My Friend!

(3) K-3 Lucy, the overly enthusiastic, tutu-clad bear from Children Make Terrible Pets tries to make a new friend. Forcing herself upon each critter, she insists, "Start liking me RIGHT NOW." It's not until Lucy believes all hope is lost that a new pal appears. Playful mixed-media illustrations include comical characters and word balloons that extend the humor (e.g., Lucy to an egg: "I can wait").
