Gooney Bird Greene
by Lois Lowry
Reviewed by Jenna B. (D1)
Gooney Bird Greene has just moved to Water
tower and she is nothing like the other kids. She is different because she
always dresses in unusual clothes. The
first day she walked in wearing cargo pants, a tutu, and a polka dot shirt.
Isn’t that a little strange? Her classmates thought so. She always “likes to be
absolutely the center of attention.” She starts to fit in when she tells the
other children stories. Do you wonder
how Gooney Bird got her name? The kids in her class did. Would you like to know
how her beloved cat was consumed by a cow?
I
really enjoyed this book and most kids will too. If you’re looking for a fun
filled book, this is the one for you. It’s funny and sweet and you even learn a
thing or two. If you don’t read this book you won’t know how Gooney Bird came
from
After you read this book, try Gooney Bird
and the Room Mother!
