Description

Lilly the mouse is thrilled with her brand-new, sparkling purple plastic purse, complete with three shiny quarters. She can't wait to show it off at school, but her teacher, Mr. Slinger, asks her to wait until after lunch. Lilly's excitement quickly turns to frustration, leading her to make a regrettable decision that causes a ripple effect of unhappiness. This heartwarming story explores themes of patience, impulse control, and the importance of saying sorry, all told with Kevin Henkes' signature wit and gentle understanding of childhood emotions.
