Cleary, B., & Life, K. (1990). Muggie Maggie.
New York: Morrow Junior Books.
Shortly after starting the
third grade, a little girl by the name of Maggie Schultz is faced with the
dread of learning how to read and write in cursive. Agitated by the
nagging of her teacher, Mrs. Leeper, and her parents that she must perfect this
inability, Maggie decides to simply refuse to learn cursive writing, so Mrs.
Leeper tries to teach her by assigning her with the duty of messenger and
bringing notes to different classrooms. Intrigued by the notes, Maggie tries to
decipher the writing, as she feels that Mrs. Leeper may actually be writing
about her, but how will she read them if she cant read cursive?
