Then Betty and her best friend, Mae, have the best idea of all: What if they threw Mom a circus surprise party?! It will be the greatest day in the history of the universe!

Everything is perfect until Betty realizes--oh, no!--Mom's birthday isn't today . . . it's next month. Whatever will they do with their circus surprise now?

Reese Witherspoon's Busy Betty is an exuberant, smart, and larger-than-life character who encourages young readers to tackle each obstacle with enthusiasm, excitement, and big ideas.

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

"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
