Clarice Bean Spells Trouble -- Lauren Child

Everything I said about Utterly Me, Clarice Bean still stands.  Except that this book's ribbon bookmark is RED, not PINK.

Here.  Enjoy some classic Clarice:

Eggplant is an organic shop as well as being vegetarian.  It's all about selling things that haven't been sprayed with chemically things.

I am not sure what that word organic exactly stands for really.  Who does know?  They should call it "with bugs" or something so people know what they are in for.  You might find a caterpillar in your broccoli but that's the point.

Mom says, "There's nothing wrong with eating a caterpillar."

I say, "There is if you are vegetarian."

I suppose that as they're so recent, these books probably can't be considered 'classics' -- yet.  But they will be.
