Amanda Pig, First Grader
by Jean Van Leeuwen; illustrated by Ann Schweninger
It's not easy to grow from a little kid to a big kid. The world can be a bit scary. It's a good thing there are Amanda Pig books. Amanda Pig is a new first grader in this series by Jean Van Leeuwen and illustrated by Ann Schweninger. With simple words, a gently realistic story arc and believable characters, Amanda Pig goes forth to conquer first grade and the mini-traumas typical of that age. Amanda handles tricky situations with courage and manners, but she is not too sickly sweet or too much of a wise-guy. Amanda Pig, First Grader is one of thirteen different Amanda Pig titles. You can find it in the Reader 2 section or reserve it with your library card. Mary M.
