Not-So-Lucky Lefty by Megan McDonald and illustrated by Erwin Madrid is part of the Judy Moody and Friends series for readers not quite ready for the Stink and Judy Moody series. For one whole day older sister Judy tries to be left-handed so she can join her dad and brother in celebrating Left Handers Day at the pretzel factory and mini golf course. It’s harder than she thought, but dad especially is understanding. The day is filled with fun activities that end with a free root beer for both children. With 60 pages, lots of white space, and colorful illustrations on every page, this is a happy family story that will be welcomed by transitional primary grade readers. The illustrations are more like cartoons than the other Judy Moody books and were created digitally. Recommended where children will have access to the Judy Moody and Stink series when they are more proficient readers. Recommended by Margy Soule, Coffin School, Brunswick, Maine
