Poppy's Best Paper
1 Hardcover/1 CD (see all formats)

Narrator Kathleen McInerney manages the voices of many school-age characters, including Poppy, who wants to become a writer ("I will write the BEST paper EVER!") as well as unappreciated Coach Lavender; Mrs. Rose, the firm, calm teacher; and an articulate and evenly modulated narrator. With each class writing assignment, Poppy radiates confidence, which then plummets when another student's work is chosen for the class read-aloud. MacInerney speeds and slows, punches out anger, whines with elongated sighs, and charges ahead right along with Poppy. Listen in to hear how Poppy will do on the instruction-writing assignment. School sound effects and light music complement the story.
