I know of Raina and her work from her previous books that my daughter also loves, like Sisters and Smile. They’re such fun books and this one is no different. I really love the illustrations and I love that the publisher decided to reprint it in color. It’s very tween-friendly and perfect for those kids who don’t particularly like to read, like my daughter. Even though it’s been like 20+ years since I’ve read Kristy’s Great Idea, reading it with my daughter brought back inklings of memories. I’m glad Raina was able to capture the basics of the story, staying true to Ann’s work while adding a bit of her own flair.

Thoughts from BG1 (my daughter): It was very funny and yet heartbreaking at times. My favorite part was when Kristy wrote an essay on decorum that needed to be 100 words and her last two words were “the end”. That totally cracked me up. I really loved the pictures and I would totally recommend this book to my friends.
