Pennypacker is breaking new ground this year with a novel that’s very different from the Clementine series. It’s not easy being the creative one in the family, but this is one gal who’s willing to be that person.” And her parents have been planning something in secret that is making Clementine very nervous indeed. Her father, who takes care of the apartment building they live in, is fighting The Great Pigeon War against, what he labels, pigeon splat. Not that these were the only bad things that happened to our heroine this week. For example, she cuts all her own hair off in sympathy with Margaret and gets her own head painted green. She’s always willing to go the extra mile. Margaret’s always been jealous of her friend’s bouncy red curls, so it makes perfect sense to Clementine to take the strongest red marker she has and color some curls onto Margaret’s nearly bald head. It all began when her best friend Margaret let Clementine cut her hair in the school bathroom. The plot from my review reads, “Clementine can tell you right from the start when her week started going poorly.
