Lilly's Big Day by Kevin Henkes

In this companion to Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse, readers will discover a funny, poignant tale about facing life's disappointments and celebrating happy surprises.

Lilly's favorite teacher, Mr. Slinger, is getting married, and Lilly is going to be his flower girl! Well, Lilly, thinks she is going to be his flower girl. It turns out that Mr. Slinger's niece Ginger is the official flower girl. But Lilly rises to the occasion as only Lilly can, turning heartbreak into wedding cake (a delicious three-tiered frosted Swiss cheese, no less), and disappointment into friendship! A #1 New York Times bestseller by Caldecott Medalist Kevin Henkes.

This award-winning and beautifully illustrated picture book about friendship, perseverance, loyalty, love, weddings, and family is the companion to the bestselling classic Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse.

Kevin Henkes has been lauded for his work as both a writer and an illustrator, and he was awarded the Children's Literary Legacy Award for his contributions to children's literature. Caldecott Awards for Waiting and Owen; two Newbery Honors--one for Olive's Ocean and one for The Year of Billy Miller--and Geisel Honors for Waiting and Penny and Her Marble--all for Kitten's First Full Moon. Sun Flower Lion, A Parade of Elephants, Chrysanthemum, and Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse are among his other works. Kevin Henkes shares a home with his family in Madison, Wisconsin.
