What We're Reading: Laurie


Ida B. and her plans to maximize fun, avoid disaster, and (possibly) save the world by Katherine Hannigan.

This is a heartwarming story about Ida B. Applewood. Ida is a fourth grader who is homeschooled, has a fantastic imagination and adores to be outdoors. She loves to play in her family's apple orchard and looks upon the trees as her friends. She always tells her parents that there is not enough time in the day to have fun so she tries to create as much fun as she possibly can. Ida B. receives terrible news from her father and her cheerful attitude and positive outlook on life change drastically. Then an adult reaches out to help Ida understand why bad things happen in life and how not to let such circumstances change her personality.
