Description
Lily has started to show off. And sometimes she gets up to some pretty scary things when she's told not to. Will she ever learn to do as she is told?
Quick Summary
In this story, Lily has started showing off and doing scary things even after being told not to, testing her parents' patience while Blue Kangaroo watches from the sidelines. The book explores What Happens on Wednesdays when a child refuses to listen and learns that ignoring warnings leads to trouble. If your kid likes "The Berenstain Bears and the Trouble with Gold" or similar picture books about not following rules, they'll recognize the familiar lesson about listening to grown-ups. This is great for kindergarten through third graders at an AR Level 2.3 with a 0.5 point value and 605 words.
