Sweet and funny episodic stories featuring an African-American boy, Julian, his younger brother and their friends and family. Although originally published over 20 years ago, the stories hold up and don't seem dated. Recommended.

Good book for beginning readers - boys or girls. Some illustrations help to break up the chapters but for younger readers it really does feel like a chapter book. Cute stories.
