Horn Book Review

In Cousins's latest "first experiences" book, Penguin and Ostrich are getting married, and Maisy (and readers) learn the essentials of a wedding. From the ceremony to the party afterward, Maisy and her friends enjoy each special moment before the newlyweds embark on their honeymoon. Cousins's bold, cheerful gouache illustrations are well suited to a celebratory occasion full of love, confetti, dancing, and cake. (c) Copyright 2018.
