Review
It is just an ordinary Tuesday when Evie P. arrives at school, but it turns out to be the best Tuesday ever for Lily!
Evie P. arrived on an airship, and has spent her life travelling the world, so she is extremely knowledgeable about life. She is very confident and articulate, as well as being a talented artist. Lily and her classmates had never met anyone like Evie P.
When Lily realises that Evie P. has never had the experience of friendship, she feels a bond with her immediately, as Lily has never had a friend like Evie P. before either!
On that ordinary Tuesday, Evie P. brought fun, imagination and adventure to their day, and a zest for life that they hadn’t seen before. Lily can’t wait for tomorrow!
This is a delightful story about friendship and adventure that will be thoroughly enjoyed by junior to middle primary students.
