Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take 📱 Kindle
Roscoe Riley Rules 3-Book Collection
Katherine Applegate · 2014
75/100
👍 Worth It
Three funny, true-to-life Roscoe stories bundled together — gluing friends to chairs, standing up to a bully, nearly swapping a sweater for a dog — make this a great bridge for kids stepping up from picture books. Roscoe's good heart and bad plans are consistently charming, and the bully subplot is handled with just enough weight without ever feeling heavy.
