Books like Mrs. Lilly is silly! by Dan Gutman


During Career Day at Ella Mentry School, third‑grader A.J. and his classmates meet Mrs. Lilly, a local reporter who encourages them to start a school newspaper.

The story follows the kids as they learn valuable lessons about responsibility, teamwork, and the power of print media. The book combines humor and realistic school life, appealing to young readers who enjoy storylines centered around school projects, journalism, and the challenges of growing up with a light, engaging tone.
