by Maisha Oso (Author), Courtney Lovett (Illustrator)

"Will surely be a smash hit as a classroom read-aloud." --Booklist (starred review) on Venus Washington and the Lasagna Drama

The three books in the Venus Washington series full of hilarious misunderstandings and hijinks are perfect for fans of Junie B. Jones and Dory Fantasmagory and now available together in one shrink-wrapped paperback collection!

Venus Washington has a planet-sized imagination and a talent for turning the ordinary into the extraordinary...which sometimes get her into super-sized trouble! One day she's uncovering the toe-tally gross secret in Grandma's lasagna, the next she's masterminding the wildest birthday party in town, and then she's pretty sure she's blasting off to Venus itself.

Packed with humor, heart, and just the right amount of chaos, these three books bring together Venus, her besties (and frenemies), her loveable family, and Hamsterburger the hamster. Perfect for fans of funny, fast-paced chapter books that kids want to read again and again!

This zany shrink-wrapped paperback collection includes:
Venus Washington and the Lasagna Drama
Venus Washington and the Birthday Blowout
Venus Washington, Eye Spy
