Summary: I didn't like it that much because I am older for this book
Comment: I think this book is about a little girl that is two faced, she can be a little brat, but she can also be a nice person. Libby learns that all people are can be like that. Libby and Matilda become friends and I kinda think that it was qwrong the Libby treated her mean like that, but I guess in a way Matilda derserved it, but instead of being mean she should've told her instead of being rude to her.

Summary: School Library Journal Review
Comment: "Libby suspects that her friend Matilda is a moocher. She loves to ride Libby's bike, borrow her favorite socks, and she always needs to borrow a quarter at lunchtime. Libby starts avoiding the girl, going home from school "sick" so that she won't have to be Matilda's class-project partner. But when her friend visits, Libby remembers why she likes her, particularly Matilda's friendly way of making her feel better. This lighthearted story is whimsically illustrated with gouache and pen-and-ink in brihgt pastles that feature cartoonlike characters in a suburban setting. The varied layout keeps pace with the funny and precise text (a well-done first from an experienced illustrator), and although Matilda's mooching is never actually confronted or resolved, readers might be inclined to be as forgiving as Libby is of her friend. An easy, crowd-pleasing read-aloud." --Nina Lindsay, Vista School, Albany, CA
