Armed with a vivid imagination and her trusty cat mask, Lily can take on anything--even a new school...

But when her teacher tells her no masks allowed in class, Lily worries, can she make friends without it?

Anyone who has been daunted by a new experience, or struggled to put on a good face, will relate to Lily. Whimsical art brings Lily, her father, and her new classmates to life, with text that begs to be read aloud. Perfect for Father's Day, back to school, and even Halloween--Lily and her grinning cat mask are sure to make you smile back.

Julie Fortenberry wears many hats (ahem, masks), but her favorite one is as an artist. Her artwork has been exhibited around the country, including at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Visit her at juliefortenberry.com and follow her on Twitter @childrensbook.
