Moxy Maxwell Does Not Love Stuart Little by Peggy Gifford
A few years ago I stumbled upon this charming book at a half price store. Moxy’s challenge is to read “Stuart Little” during her summer break before she enters fourth grade.  Moxy and her book are inseparable…. but not in the way you might think!  Like all of us who put off doing what we SHOULD be doing, Moxy’s real problem is that she does not want to read what someone tells her to read!
As if the story isn’t engaging enough, the pictures in every chapter are black and white photos taken by Moxy’s twin brother, Mark.  You will meet “Mudd”, Moxy’s dog and “Rosie”.  Written much in the story form of Clementine or an older version of Junie B. Jones, “Moxy Maxwell Does Not Love Stuart Little” will make you smile and laugh and look forward to many of the other “Moxy Maxwell” adventures! (Review by Mrs. Kalbfleisch)
