Introducing the incomparable Sissy Buttons -- a spunky new picture book heroine from a bestselling author. Sissy Buttons is sassy, smart, and bossy, and can do almost anything. The only thing she's not good at doing are the things she doesn't want to do! After a tough day playing with her teddy bears in the garden, Sissy's mother asks her to clean up. Reluctant to do so, Sissy falls asleep instead. But in her dreams she finds herself in charge of a real teddy bears picnic. The bears are misbehaving, and unless she can persuade them to try a little harder, then everything will go horribly wrong. Sissy finally convinces the bears that they can do anything they want -- if only they try.
