Spectacular Stone Soup (The New Kids of Polk Street School)

This book, like the others in the series, is an absolute joy! All of these books have morals, without being overly preachy. Like the other reviewer said, I agree that the funny part was Stacy breaking the pencil sharpener. When I was Stacey's age I, too, "broke" a pencil sharpener but it was my mom's office pencil sharpener. I couldn't fit it back together so my mom was upset about the mess just like Ms. Zachary is in this book (however I was able to get it back together later on luckily). So when I read about Stacey's pencil sharpener dielema, I chuckled because I could relate!

You;ll like the part about when Stacey broke the pencil sharpener.
