    Praise for Busy Betty:

    "A fun and high-spirited story for the fans of Fancy Nancy, Pinkalicious, or Freckleface Strawberry."--School Library Journal

    "An earnest and unabashed celebration of youthful entrepreneurial zeal that feels very of the moment." --Publishers Weekly

    "Extreme angles effectively convey a sense of perpetual motion. . . . Witherspoon’s rollicking text never holds back . . . . as Betty says, “Being busy is a great way to be.” Young readers are sure to agree."--Kirkus reviews
