From School Library Journal
Grade 2-4-When Sarah has to give a school report on a country, she's stumped as to which one to choose. She's disappointed that she isn't from or hasn't visited anywhere else. What can she do to make her report special? She finally chooses England so at least she can dress up like a queen and wear a sparkly crown. Then Sarah is invited to a sleepover at her friend's apartment. Mercedes has recently come from Mexico, and everything in her home reflects her native land. All of a sudden, wearing a sparkly crown doesn't seem so important. Sarah chooses Mexico for her country and knows exactly what to do to make her report extra special. This early chapter book is the fourth about Sarah but can easily stand alone. The illustrations are mostly of the characters, but the backgrounds are wonderful for comparing and contrasting the girls' apartments. The story is a great example of friendship and learning new things.-Kelly Roth, Bartow County Public Library, Cartersville, GA
