Review
A well written transitional chapter book that is appropriate and enjoyable for the intended audience. A good addition to the series with familiar characters, children will enjoy Judy discovering Grandma Lou's Bucket List, and Judy creating her own. Judy's attempts to accomplish the items on her list will appeal to readers who can relate to her trying to do a cartwheel, failing, but not giving up. A book that will make you smile, this is a good choice to those just transiting into chapter books as it closing follows the recommended large font, 16 lines per page, illustrations that go well with the text, and short chapters. Well done!
Overall Book Score: very good
