Lupe is full of confidence and excitement as she bounces through the door into her kindergarten. I could help but be entertained by her. Though Lupe and her teacher don't see eye to eye, the teacher does seem to keep a smile on her face even when she was delivering information Lupe wouldn't appreciate. Young readers seem to enjoy mischievous characters and here they will definitely see someone who stands out and pushes boundaries. The illustrations are bright and upbeat and add a lot to the story.
Recommendation: This would be a nice story to use at the beginning of the school year to have a discussion about rules and why we have them and/or why we choose to follow or break them.

This was a fun first day of school/kindergarten life story. What a dream team author duo.

First day of kindergarten in Texas for this up and coming drummer.
She struggles with how to embrace the rock lifestyle when she's expected to follow the rules. Eventually she learns: Even rock stars follow the rules sometimes. Made both my inner child and my inner teacher/rule follower uncomfortable.

I enjoyed this story of a child learning her limits while still keeping her individuality. Lupe reminded me of my child, who despite being told the rules over and over again, still needs to push against boundaries. The story is realistic while still being fun and conveying a lesson!
