Reviews
The illustrations are cheerful and always appropriate, making it easy for the child to identify with the story and read the text. This will be a useful book to have in the classroom, especially in schols where there is a large transient population and it would be a good book to have whenever the needs of new children are being considered.BOOKS FOR KEEPS
