"Posey is the perfect fictional friend for any first-grade girl."-Kirkus Reviews Posey is very nervous about starting first grade and walking into school all by herself. Worst of all, she has to do it without the one thing that always makes her feel brave and special- the tutu that turns her into the Pink Princess. How will Posey face the first day of school without it Make reading sparkle in the chapter book series for first grade readers!
"Six-year-old Posey, in a sparkly pink tutu on the cover, will catch the attention of young emerging readers. Like Miss Lee's invitation, this new chapter book series will be warmly received by youngsters looking for something comfortable and familiar to begin with." The Horn Book
"This is a sweet book, and children will relate to the childs fears about her new experience and leaving her security tutu behind. Theres also a confidence-building ending in which the new first graders are encouraged to be true to themselves." School Library Journal
"Greenes simple sentences are distinguished by punchy dialogue and sentiments that do justice to a range of emotions, from frustration and nervousness to unadulterated glee. They should go a long way to easing the worries of readers embarking on a new stage in their school life." Publisher's Weekly
