The Thing Lou Couldn't Do by Ashley Spires

"She'll be back. Maybe even tomorrow. After all, Lou loves an adventure."

LOVE this. The author gets many things right in this sweet story. First: the excuses. How many kids to we know that come up with off-the-wall reasons as to why they can't accomplish something? Second: the illustrations.  These illustrations are child-friendly and completely fit the story. They are playful, colorful, and just plain fun. Third: the ending. I don't want to spoil it for anyone, so I won't give too many details, but let me just tell you, IT IS PERFECT. I highly recommend this to parents, teachers, librarians, and kids (whether in age or in heart) all over.
