Utterly Me, Clarice Bean by Lauren Child | Goodreads

Fans of Child's irrepressible, impulsive picture-book heroine — as well as kids who have not yet had the pleasure of making her acquaintance — will devour her first chapter-book adventure." — Publishers Weekly Clarice’s way of speaking reminds me of Junior B Jones, which I loved as a kid. Clarice loves Ruby Redford mystery novels and dislikes her teacher. However, she gets to do a presentation on what she learned by reading Ruby Redford books, in spite of what her teacher thinks about the series. Meanwhile Clarice was suspecting her grandfather going out every night, it turns out his friend Bert has 2 dogs and is living in an old Folks home that strictly forbidden pets. So her grandfather kept the dogs and sneaks one of the dog out every night to Bert room in Folks home so he can have a company every night. However one day, one of the dog accidentally ate a bird from his neighbors (birds are somehow only allowed in the Folks home) and his neighbor filed a complain. So now her grandfather is banned from going to the old folk home and Bert and his 2 dogs moved to Clarice home. Bert will stay in Clarice house until he finds a new home that allows pets. Eventually, Bert was able to find a new home but it only accepts one pet , Betty volunteered to keep one of his dog. Really funny and I loved the characters in it. My favourite character is Clarice Bean because she's the main character and I also like her best friend Betty Moody. I would recommend someone else to read it because it is a really good book. Clarice Bean loves reading the adventures of Ruby Redfort, ace girl detective and secret undercover agent. Ruby is always going on exciting missions, but the most Clarice gets to do is go to the local shop on her own . . .The main characters in the book were Clarice Bean and Betty Moody, who I loved, and Grace Grapello although she could be a bit mean.

Utterly me is all about getting through a school project- a book exhibit (and be unscathed by Mrs Wilberton), solving the mystery of her friend; Betty Moody disappearing (of course Clarice Bean presumes the worst) and the missing school trophy (did Karl Wrenbury really steal it?)....Utterly Me, Clarice Bean is a simple book for primary school kid. I bought it for my 9 years old daughter, but I was the one who starts to read the book. I did not realise that Lauren Child writes this series. I know that the author is famous for the Charlie and Lola series. I just find the writing so amusing and Lauren Child has such a distinctive and clever style. It is utterly impossible to be bored reading any of her work.

In fact, Clarice Bean is starting to feel just like her favorite heroine: Ruby Redfort, schoolgirl detective. During that time, Mrs Wilberton assigned Karl Wrenbury , ( a very naughty kid in class) to be Clarice partner, Clarice didn’t like him at first, but he was a creative boy who was able to recreate the Ruby Redfort story, by making a volcano erupt . Including having the character Ruby and her partner Clancy Crew hanging on a helicopter for the exhibition .Her book I Will Not Ever Never Eat A Tomato won the 2000 Kate Greenaway Medal. For the 50th anniversary of the Medal (1955–2005), a panel named it one of the top ten winning works, which comprised the shortlist for a public vote for the nation's favourite. It finished third in the public vote from that shortlist. Clarice Bean is the more literate version of Junie B. Jones: sassy, slightly too confident of her abilities, winning in her no-nonsense view of the world. Lauren Child is the 10th Waterstones Children's Laureate. Of the role she said, “I want to inspire children to believe in their own creative potential, to make their own stories and drawings and ignite in them the delight of reading for pleasure. In an increasingly fast paced world, children need the freedom to dream and imagine; to enjoy reading, drawing and telling their own stories without value judgement or restraint”. This was my second time reading Utterly Me, Clarice Bean. I read it aloud to my girls, and I think it may have been for a slightly older audience. The first time I read it alone, I found it much more funny. But my girls completely enjoyed it! Clarice has a very funny narrative voice, and reading it now after the Ruby Redfort spin-off books (which hadn't been written yet the first time I read) was very entertaining. I highly recommend them! And the second book in the Clarice Bean trilogy—it's a lot more funny.
