You're Mean, Lily Jean!

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kady MacDonald Denton. Sisters Carly and Sandy love playing pretend. New neighbor Lily Jean loves acting out roles, too, always as the boss. When Carly gets tired of her lesser parts, she turns the game on its head in a creative and humorous way. Big-sis Sandy's selflessness, while a little bit idealized, is also rewarding. Denton's pencil and watercolor illustrations represent the girls' imaginings well.
