Clementine’s Letter

9780786838851 | Little, Brown Books for Young Readers

Clementine's beloved third grade teacher might be leaving for the rest of the school year! And even worse, Clementine and the substitute teacher are NOT getting along.

Clementine can't believe her ears: her beloved teacher, Mr. D'Matz, might be leaving them for the rest of the year to go on a research trip to Egypt!

Reviews

“Pennypacker and Frazee have this latter-day Ramona down to a T, her distinctive voice and unruly curls happily unblunted by familiarity.”
–Kirkus, starred review

“Irrepressible and delightful Clementine is back... she shines with a vibrant spirit that can never be completely extinguished, even when she is feeling down. Frazee's pen-and-ink drawings perfectly capture Clementine's personality and her world.”
–School Library Journal, starred review
