Calling all bookworms!

Kelsey Green, Reading Queen by Claudia Mills and Illustrated by Rob Shepperson

Kelsey Green, Reading Queen, is there really such a thing? Absolutely. Check out this fabulous early chapter book, recommended for grades 2-4 for girls who loved Clementine, Ivy and Bean and Judy Moody.

Kelsey Green is a 3rd grader and she loves to read. The principal has just announced that there will be a school wide reading contest and Kelsey wants to win! The winning grade gets a pizza party but if the school reads a total of 2000 books in four weeks the principal, who looks like Santa Claus, promises to shave off his beard. Kelsey's goal is to win both!

This adorable story is a great read, especially for those who love to read. Kelsey is a funny character with some neat friends. In fact, this is a new series by author, Claudia Mills, which will be showcasing Kelsey's friends in her next installments. Annika loves to solve math problems for fun and Izzy is the fastest runner in the school. Three best friends who love to take on all sorts of
challenges. Look for the Annika Riz, Math Whiz and Izzy Barr, Running Star. But not before you read all about Kelsey Green of course!
