This reminds me a little of Haywood's Betsy series. Would have enjoyed this in early elementary school.
Bean: small, dark, mischievous with a penchant for bad words and practical jokes. Ivy: taller, redhead, soft-spoken with a flare for using big words and reading constantly. Together: unstoppable.This book is so good. The first 5-star I've given to an I&B book.It all starts when Nancy, Bean's older sister, is going to Girl Power 4 Ever Camp. She is 11. Since Been is only 7, she can't go. The only camp available to 7-year-olds is lame Puppet Fun! camp. Bean plans on building a tree house. When tha...
4.5/5 stars4/5 stars from me5/5 from my 7 year old niece.My niece enjoys Ivy and Bean. I've read a number of the books from the series with her. Ivy and Bean are fun kids. And their adventures are always fun to read about.In this story Bean's older sister Nancy (who is also very fun to read about) goes to camp. So Ivy and Bean make their own camp.It was a cute read. And if you like Ivy and Bean books then you'll enjoy this one too.
I've noticed that many series for girls tend to feature a token collection: girls from different backgrounds come together to make one girl supergroup. And no, I'm not referring to race or socioeconomic class, but rather high school clique, a la the jocks, the nerds, etc. What's always puzzled me is what the girls have in common. They all have amazing adventures, but it seems their only function is to collaborate on these adventure projects. In real life, the jocks want to play sports, the nerds...
This was a super fun book about Ivy and Bean, two girls who are too grown to go to a baby camp, but too little to have fun with the big kids. The solution? Ivy and Bean make their own camp, and their own rules (which, as it turns out, is way more fun than the camp for big kids).
Ivy + Bean is a series for young grade-schoolers that I just cannot resist following, even now that Natalya has “outgrown” them. And yet, who was that blue-haired young lady giggling from behind a book and coming up to me to set it down with a satisfied sigh? “Oh, mom, the zombie-part was awesome. And the Komodo-catcher…; and the…” I love Ivy + Bean.*Feeling a bit sorry for the younger daughter who WILL NOT go to Puppet Fun! the only camp for her age-group, Bean’s mom thinks Bean is finally old
Ivy and Bean fans can rejoice at the new title in the series, Ivy + Bean Make the Rules.Bean thinks it’s not fair that her sister Nancy gets to go to Girl Power 4-Ever summer camp while she is only old enough to sign up for Puppet Fun! At seven, she’s not a baby anymore, and she wishes others would realize that too.But Bean doesn’t want to just stay home moping around while Nancy has fun all day, so she’s excited when her mom says she’s old enough to walk to the park with Ivy. That’s when the fu...
When Bean's older sister Nancy heads off to a female empowerment day camp, Bean wishes she could do the same. Her best friend Ivy convinces her that they don't need to wait until they're old enough for the camp; instead, they will be in charge of their own camp at the park. While things start off very slowly, by the time the book finishes, the two have attracted many other children and have hunted Komodo dragons, led a tap dancing troupe, bandaged themselves and wandered about the park as zombie...
Bean won't admit it, but she's disappointed when she finds out she's too young to go to Girl Power 4-Ever camp with her sister Nancy. But that's OK, Ivy and Bean will just create their own camp at the park; one they'll plan and run themselves with younger neighborhood kids as their campers. Each day's theme presents them with plenty of opportunities to use their imaginations, ending with their study of Great Women of History, in which they act out the battle between Boudica, Queen of the Britons...
