Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse

by Kevin Henkes


Review this book!

Lilly the mouse is excited about attending school. She loves everything about the place including the pointy pencils, the squeaky chalk, the long hallways, her own desk, and most of all her teacher, Mr. Slinger. However, on one fateful Monday, Lilly brings her new prized possession to school--a purple plastic purse that plays a tune whenever it is opened. When Lilly ignores Mr. Slinger's request that she stop opening the purse, he eventually has to take it away from her. Now Lilly thinks of Mr. Slinger as nothing more than "Big fat mean Mr. Stealing Teacher." Will Lilly and Mr. Slinger find a way to become friends again? Color illustrations accompany the text.

Publisher Notes

Lilly, the indomitable mouse-child of Chester's Way and Julius, the Baby of the World, is back! Young readers will cheer loud and long for Lilly's return and for Kevin Henkes at his hilarious, tender best. Full-color illustrations.

Media Reviews

"The illustrations do an exceptional job of amplifying the text: Lilly dances with excitement, flashes with anger, wanes in remorse, and leaps right off the page with joy."

Synopses

Lilly loves everything about school, especially her teacher, but when he asks her to wait a while before showing her new purse, she does something for which she is very sorry later.

First Line

Lilly loved school.
