WellieWishers: Ashlyn’s Unsurprise Party
By: Valerie Tripp
This is an early chapter book from American Girl. The WellieWishers are a group of fun loving girls who each have the same big, bright wish: to be a good friend. They wear colorful boots known as Wellies. Welliewisher Ashlyn is throwing a party for her friend. She wants it to be a surprise without any help from others. Ashlyn’s friends find a way to help out so that the surprise is on Ashlyn too. This story has a lot of repetition and rhymes which can be helpful for young readers. The Welliewisher series are enjoyable beginning chapter books for ages 5 to 8.
