Lulu Moppet is back with even more outlandish adventures and misadventures, as the cartoonist John Stanley settles into kooky and entertaining suburban storylines starring Lulu, Tubby, Alvin, and the rest of the gang. In Little Lulu: The Fuzzythingus Poopi, she outsmarts criminals who mistake her for a wealthy young girl, gets into high jinks during a day at the beach, and plays hooky-but only by accident! Lulu is a strong, assertive young girl who is both entertaining and empowering to girls and women of all ages-even if she sometimes finds herself in hot water. (W/A/CA) John Stanley
