Nothing she does is perfect.When Dot and her classmates get an assignment to make a poster about a person they admire, Dot has someone in mind right away: her best friend, Sam. But draft after draft comes out looking all wrong! How will she ever make the perfect poster for her perfect friend?Fans of Dot and Sam and new readers alike will melt as Dot keeps on trying in this relatable companion to Not Little, featuring Maya Myerss effortless narrative voice and Hyewon Yums irresistible illustrations.A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection
