The second installment in the series about Justin Case’s sister Elizabeth. Many of the characters from the first book return, especially Elizabeth’s nemesis Anna.
Elizabeth feels as if she is the only kid in Class 2B who has not lost a tooth yet. The story starts with Anna losing one during recess. Those who lost a tooth in Class 2B form a club; The Big Mouth Club. Elizabeth and Cali are the only ones who are not in the club and are forced to play together. On their playdate, Cali’s nickname comes out; Babyish Cali. Elizabeth realises this is name calling and would not make her feel very happy if anyone called her a name. She becomes super Elizabeth apologizes and stands up for Cali at school. A little book with a big message.
Short chapters, a lot of white space and delightful black and white illustrations on almost every spread, makes it a great book for those transitioning to reading their own chapter books or as a read aloud to the lower grades.
