Moxy Maxwell Does Not Love Stuart Little, Moxy Maxwell Does Not Love Writing Thank You Notes
Moxy Maxwell is described by Kirkus Reviews as "an exuberantly unforgettable character."
Moxy Maxwell has a summer reading assignment--she must read all of Stuart Little. She tries but finds a million other things to complete. Finally, she reads late into the night only to discover that she loves Stuart Little.
Moxy Maxwell must write 12 thank you noets or she will not be allowed to fly to visit her father. This is no easy task. But when Moxy's much-anticipated trip is cancelled, Moxy is forced to deal with the reality of a situation she doesn't want to accept and can't change.
In these two stories, 9-year-old Moxie Maxwell discovers that putting off onerous tasks has--in her mother's words--"consequences." In the first story, Moxy has avoided her required reading all summer, and now she must complete STUART LITTLE if she wants to participate in the Great Daisy Routine, a synchronized swimming performance. In the second, she puts off writing her thank-you notes (to be completed before taking an exciting trip) with some creative attempts at time-saving shortcuts. The youthful-voiced Clea Lewis hits just the right notes. She delivers fully imagined portrayals of exuberant, irreverent Moxy as well as Moxy's irritatingly organized twin brother and her beleaguered mother. Reluctant children (and their nagging parents) will enjoy Moxy's struggles and triumphs. J.C.G. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
