Book Cover & Preview Text
I got to school early today but guess who is already there? Perfect Patty was sitting in her perfect little chair. Her hair is always straight and neat- my curls are just a mess. I have freckles all over my nose- Perfect Patty has one; no more, no less. At show and tell last Friday I shared my new pet Lola. Patty showed a picture of her pet too- A perfect pony from Minnesota. In writing, Patty dots her “I’s” with perfect little hearts. When I write you can’t tell where my sentences end or start. Perfect Patty knows all the answers like 5+3 is 8. She even knows the capitols of each and every state.

About the Book
Everybody knows a "Perfect Patty". She appears to have it all and it comes so easy to her. The main character of the book must learn what is truly important about people rather than how they percieve them as an outside spectator. In this book, the reader will see the characters experience a range of emotions and discover that with an open heart and an open mind people have more to offer than what they may think. Everybody needs a friend, and Perfect Patty is no exception.
