Sweet story about young girl working towards a goal and persevering in face of challenges. Story focuses on her creative abilities to find ways to reach her goal. Also touches on family life with single mother and new friends. Violet's enthusiasm is catching and her can do attitude is inspiring.

A light, humourous read about a 10 - 12 year boy who desperately wants a phone so that he can look cool and be the envy of his class mates. Neville is the only kid in his whole class without a mobile phone. Or so he tells his parents. When it's clear that Neville's parents can't be persuaded to get him a phone, Neville enlists the help of his mate, Enzo. Neville and Enzo are determined. Humans have walked on the moon; they have built the pyramids - surely if they put their minds to it, they can find a way. Surely? They try various ways to persuade their parents ( very humorous to read) but to no avail. Then they fins a cell phone in a bus shelter and they set about trying to keep it, but there is no Finders Keepers in this story. Fun to read.… (meer)

Utterly charming. Violet is a young girl - 6? - who really wants to buy a china bird, but struggles with a way to raise money to buy it.

While this is a lovely story with beautiful pencil drawings, it falls into that weird high reading/low interest level, but if you have a kindergartner or 1st grader with a higher reading level, she will love Violet!

Recommended.

I think I liked this book even more than the 1st. The relationship between the two sisters in this one is really quite nice.
