The Write Stuff — Lisa Mullarkey

Katharine thinks her stories are boring. Boring with a capital B. No matter how many details and dollar words she adds, it's never enough for Mrs. Bingsley. Katharine wants a Write Stuff Pencil like everyone else. Can she whip her story into shape before the Author's Tea and earn one? Calico Chapter Books is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO Group. Grades 2-5.


From the Publisher
Third grader Katharine Carmichael, aka Katharine the Almost Great, is a work-in-progress. Katharine's convinced that if she'd stop blabbing super-duper secrets to her cousin Crockett, conquer her stage fright-itis, and come up with the winning idea for the character education service project, her parents would finally crown her Katharine the Great. Young readers will relate to her flip-flop belly dropping problems and episodes of sassitude in these entertaining, illustrated chapter books.
