"I love this sweet and quirky book—Fancy Nancy would have loved to be Mimi's identical twin!" —Robin Preiss Glasser, illustrator of Fancy Nancy

Mimi and her cat Marvin must adjust to life with an unexpected new neighbor in this hilarious, quirky, and heartwarming start to a brand-new illustrated chapter book series.
Meet Mimi! She's a cat-loving, convertible-driving, bucket-cake-baking girl who loves living in the Periwinkle Tower with her best pals, Yoshi and Tonya. When the friends learn that someone new is moving into the building just before Thanksgiving, Mimi hopes it will be a girl just like her to share all of her hobbies and adventures. But the new neighbor is not what Mimi envisioned at all. And by Christmas, things have gone from iffy...to bad...to worse! Will life in the Periwinkle Tower ever be as fabulous as it was before?

      Gr 1-4-The Periwinkle Tower in Pueblo Del Mar is home to an eclectic group of child residents. Mimi's voice leads the way in this episodic chapter book for early readers. Her adventures include an unfortunate haircut, driving a giant cut-out stegosaurus around town in her convertible, and a variety of holiday mishaps including an advent calendar, school pageant, and the annual Pueblo Del Mar Holiday Decorating Contest. Mimi's troubles begin when Boris moves into her apartment building. Boris loves caramels, and Mimi loves chocolate raisins; Mimi loves to wear spots, and Boris wears stripes. Although Mimi is irritated by Boris at first, the two are able to build a friendship. The chapters are short and bouncy, and the additional large typeface helps break up the text for newly emergent readers. Davick's illustrations add details to the story through simple cartoon-styled characters. VERDICT The simple silliness of Mimi's story should delight most young readers.-Jamie Jensen, Wayne Cox Elementary School, Roanoke, TX
