Both books are very short, easy to read, humorous chapter books with illustrations sprinkled throughout. Each of these Maud Hart Lovelace Nominees are also part of a character series. You do not have to read the books in any particular order.Calvin lives with his mother and little sister in Hawaii and Piper moves around with her family (being a "Navy brat") but in this book they are living in Pensacola, Florida. Both characters have many adventures and their lives are one crazy thing after another. Both are fun stories that 2nd and 3rd graders will enjoy.
