Sundays are scary to Alycat because it means the next day is Monday. She's concerned that she may have a surprise quiz or that her shoes won't be right.

This is a cute book about the value of friendship. It'd be a great book to share with the small children in your life. The illustrations are very well done. They are colorful and grab the attention of the reader.

Alycat and the Copycat by Alysson Foti BourqueMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
It's science fair day and Alycat has on the PURR-fect shirt! She's excited to show off her exploding volcano to the class. When she gets on the bus, Lucy has on the same shirt and then she sets up the same experiment. This is upsetting to Alycat but even more so, when she realizes she doesn't have any baking soda for her experiment to work. Both Alycat and Lucy learn an important lesson in this great book.
The main theme of this book is that "two things are better than one" and the value of appreciating those around you. There is a STEM activity in the back of the book teaching the reader how to make an exploding volcano science experiment.
