review 1: I liked most that this picture book had multi-cultural faces; especially the teacher. I liked that the teacher is an African-American woman to a classroom that includes mulit-colored faces. I also liked that the stories humor and it's tales of imaginary pets. The ending was pretty clever. How the teacher makes Ida feel better about being the only one in class who still has her imaginary pet is great.
review 2: At first this seems like a straight-forward book for kindergartners, but I’m not sure it is. As it goes on, the line between fantasy and reality gets very blurred, and while it is completely charming, might be confusing for the younger reader. I think 2nd-3rd might do better with it. Reminds me of Pinkalicious in that the heroine learns that to be on... moreeself even when others say you are “babyish” is a great route to take. Loved the sparkly cover and the illustrations. less
