Publisher Description: The spirited and sassy eight-year-old Mandy Berr strives to look--and behave!--her best in this sweet and funny tale. Class Picture Day is fast approaching, and Mandy Berr is looking for the perfect accessory that will complete her special outfit. Her fancy-dancy sunglasses, sparkly scarf, and pink handbag are all up for consideration--but Mandy isn't sure those will be good enough. As if picking out an appropriate look for her class picture wasn't enough to worry about, the principal announces a contest for the entire school: whoever exhibits the best behavior in the lunchroom for two weeks gets to have a lunch with him in the mythical teacher's lounge! Mandy is determined to win...but will her nemesis, Dennis, get in her way? |
