About this title

Synopsis

Amanda Pig and her family and friends try to find different ways to beat the heat.

Reviews

K-Gr. 2. Readers will practically feel the heat rising from the pages of the latest Amanda Pig book, as four episodic stories unfold through the course of a very hot day. First, Amanda's father dampens Amanda's complaints about the stifling, sticky heat with a surprise shower from the garden hose. After her brother, Oliver, and his pals reject her offer to help them build a fort, Amanda and her friend Lollipop open a lemonade stand. That night, the family gather outdoors to hear an unusual bedtime story as they wait for a cool breeze. The clarity, simplicity, and charm of the pencil-and-watercolor artwork create an appealing look for these childlike and sometimes amusing stories. An excellent addition to the satisfying Dial Easy-to-Read series. Carolyn Phelan
