Find out in <i>Piper Reed, Party Planner, </i> by author Kimberly Willis Holt and illustrator Christine Davenier<br></b><br>Piper Reed and her fellow Gypsy Club members are in need of a clubhouse. Raising money to buy one proves a challenge. Piper, being the resourceful fifth grader that she is, launches her own party-planning business and gets her first job throwing young Brady's birthday celebration. But things don't go as expected on the day of the big event. Fortunately for Piper, her friends and family come to her rescue! <p/> Previously published as <i>Piper Reed Gets a Job</i>.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This book is a good addition to the series and is also a natural for fans of Clementine or Judy Moody, as well as readers ready to step beyond Junie B. Jones." --<i>School Library Journal</i> <p/>"Here, as in the other chapter books in the Piper Reed series, Holt balances serious moments with wit and creates a convincingly childlike sensibility throughout most of the episodic story. Appearing on most double-page spreads, Davenier's lively drawings help bring the characters to life." --<i>Booklist</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Kimberly Willis Holt</b> is the author of the Piper Reed series, including <i>Piper Reed, Navy Brat</i>, <i>Piper Reed, Clubhouse Queen</i>, and <i>Piper Reed, Rodeo Star</i>.
