SUMMARY – Sara Sue loves soup, no matter what kind. She has it every day. There’s just one tiny, little, slight problem – whenever she takes a sip, it turns into a humongous “SssLLuuuoooorrrrrPPPP”! When her parents get annoyed by the slooping, they make her a deal. Over five days, Sara Sue must figure out how to stop her slooping, or her mom will never make soup again!
WHAT I THOUGHT – This was a cute book. The illustrations are really nice, and portray the characters’ personalities well. Ms. Pfautz uses a nice amount of onomatopoeia to make kids laugh and enjoy reading the book. I think it would make a great read aloud. Sara Sue is a likeable character, and you understand how she feels. I like how the dog makes a comical appearance every once in a while. Ms. Pfautz has written a nice story about manners, and meeting your goals!
I give this book four out of five bookworms!

Great choice. And a good book to share with kids who sloop, because it can be hard to break. Kids will love the humor!

Do you say that because someone (who shall remain nameless) in your family might do it? 😉 Or is it just a pet peeve of yours? 😉
Both.. and it isn’t who you think it is. 🙂
