Infectiously lively and humorously true to the creative energy of a typical preschooler, this is also the perfect read-aloud choice for kids who are curious about what their working parents do all day.

PreSchool-Grade 1—We all know children who love to imagine themselves as superheroes-and with this sprightly story about Amelia Grace (aka Adventure Girl), readers can find a heroine with whom to identify. When Adventure Girl's mom is called back to work to find a misplaced report instead of the two of them spending the day together, she takes her daughter along, instructing her to sit and wait. But Adventure Girl has other ideas and stalks the wilds of the quiet workplace determined to find the file. In a great "rescue," she spots the errant folder under a desk and saves the day. The charm of this story lies not only in depicting the fun that kids have at parents' workplaces but also in portraying Adventure Girl as cheerfully undaunted by changes in plans and parental admonitions. The bright, full-color pencil and watercolor pictures are set against ample white space and show the warm relationship between mother and daughter. This is an office adventure that children will want to experience and a heroine they'll love meeting.—Marge Loch-Wouters, Menasha Public Library, WI
