Stay, Clementine, stay!!!

I've raved about my love of Sara Pennypacker's Clementine before.

Now I have to do it again.

And guess what?

This is the LAST one in the series.

Bummer.

But this one delivers everything I've grown to love about this series.

Super funny, OF COURSE.

But I love how Clementine has matured through the series yet still remains her childish, lovable self.

I love how her relationship with Margaret has evolved.

I adore her parents and how they're present but not overly so.

I love Clementine's relationship with her teachers.

In this one, Clementine struggles to stay mad at her father for eating meat, laments having to say goodbye to her beloved third-grade teacher, and spends some hilarious time at a fancy hotel with her friend, Margaret.

This last installment is definitely, Completely Clementine.

So funny.

So realistic.

So perfect in every way.

That no-sound eating rule?

Perfection.
