This book is about and her first sleep over at Rosie's house. She is exited because all the girls are going to be over at the sleep over. When she is on the road with her mom she asks her mom if a slumber party is fun because she thinks that sleeping is boring. Her mom tells her that she will provably not sleep much and that she will be eating pizza and painting nails. Amelia ask if they will first paint the nails or hammer than and her mom laughs telling her that she will be fine. Amelia ends up having a great time. They play games and then they play outside until Rosie's dad comes with the pizza and after that they toast marshmallows for smores. Later they go inside and paint their toenails and then Rosie's mom tells them it is time to sleep. Amelia takes out her flashlight and starts making shadow puppets on the wall. The next morning they have some more fun and then they clean up and everybody goes home.
I would use this book in my class because I think kids would like to read this story. I would either have the students read it during reading time or I would do a read aloud. This book is good for Pre-K through 2nd grade.
