Moxy Maxwell Does Not Love Practicing the Piano: But She Does Love Being in Recitals

Moxy Maxwell is at it again! In this installment, she's preparing for her piano recital, but before she can rehearse she has to finish her cape, drink a green grass power shake, and do many other things. My favorite of the Moxy Maxwells so far is the second one because it went a little bit deeper into Moxy's feelings about her family. Unfortunately, this volume did not continue along that vein, but it was still an enjoyable story. I'd recommend Moxy to fans of Clementine, Judy Moody, and others in that ilk.

Anyone who has ever had a first recital can really relate to this book. And of course, if you like spunky heroines, you will also relate to this book.

On the day of her recital, ten-year-old Moxy prepares in her usual flamboyant way, which creates chaos at home.
