Not Enough Lollipops by Megan Maynor and Micah Player tells the story of Alice, who thinks it's her lucky day when she wins a wagon full of lollipops. However, sharing them with her classmates becomes more complicated than it first seems. Can she find a fair way to divvy up the sweets?

When Alice wins an enormous basket of lollipops in the raffle, she's happy to share her good fortune with friends and classmates. But everyone seems to have a different opinion on how she should divide the bounty. Suddenly, Alice's big prize becomes a big conundrum. Should she give extras to her friends? Should she withhold lollipops from the kids who always hog the tyre swing? As she weighs her options, the panic grows. What if there aren't enough to go around?

This hilarious and thought-provoking story uses lollipops in the school yard to illustrate how cooperation and generosity can make even the most daunting problems solvable.
