May Book: Bibsy Cross and the Bad Apple by Liz Garton Scanlon

Most things are easy-peasy, regular-pegular for Bibsy Cross. She loves her parents, her cat, her best friend, Natia. And she loves going to school. She might just love that most of all!

This year, Bibsy has Mrs. Stumper for a teacher, but Mrs. Stumper doesn't seem too keen on Bibsy. She thinks Bibsy talks too much.

But one day, when Bibsy talks a little too much, and goes a stone too far, Mrs. Stumper punishes her by punching a hole in her paper apple that hangs in the classroom. And Bibsy is devastated.
