From School Library Journal
Grade 2-4-This brief novel is a small gem filled with fresh humor. Bernice, a.k.a. Beany, is a worrywart, and her domineering friend, Carol Ann, exacerbates the problem. When Beany fails a test and has to take it home for her parents to sign, Carol Ann instructs her to sandwich it between lots of other papers with good grades so that the "F" won't be noticed. Of course her parents catch on, but respond with a refreshing combination of firmness and empathy. In the satisfying ending, Beany begins to get out from under Carol Ann's thumb by doing her own thing in the school talent show instead of playing the demeaning role her friend assigns to her. Wojciechowski captures the feelings, thoughts, and concerns of early elementary-age children in Beany's witty, honest first-person narrative. The story's moral is to stop worrying and enjoy life, a lesson conveyed with simplicity and charm. Natti's black-and-white illustrations are a perfect complement to the text.

From Booklist
Gr. 3-5. Bernice Lorraine Sherwin-Hendricks, known as Beany, might well be a descendant of Beverly Cleary's Ramona. What's special about Beany is that she is a worrywart. She worries at home as well as at school. For example, she worries so much about an ant's crawling into a pencil sharpener that she fails a science quiz. She then worries about how to get the quiz signed by her parents. In five easy-to-read stories, Wojciechowski catches Beany's own style and credibly tracks her eventual mellowing. Mary Harris Veeder
