ELLIOTT STREET SCHOOL
2018 SUMMER READING ASSIGNMENT
Entering Grade 4
BOOK: Lulu’s Mysterious Mission By Judith Viorst
GENRE: Fiction
SUMMARY: As hard as it may be to believe, Lulu’s doting
parents have decided to take a vacation without their precious
darling. What’s worse, they have hired a professional babysitter
to care for her while they are gone. It doesn’t take long for Lulu
to decide that Ms. Sonia Sofia Solinsky must go. Nothing if not
determined, Lulu tries faking illness, running away, destroying
her room and smuggling cats in to trigger the sitter’s severe
allergies. Nothing works, perhaps because Triple S is a former
spy. Wait. A spy?? Maybe she can stay after all, though not to
do something as dumb as babysit, but to train Lulu in the fine
art of spycraft.
