When a new girl Lisa shows up at school, Gaspard is reluctant to become her friends especially as others teased him about her. In the end Gaspard learns that Lisa has much to offer and his initial reluctance turns into a lasting friendship.

Read this to my grade 2/3. We talked about the pressures of trying to fit in and being annoyed by teasing and attacking a complete stranger when they did nothing wrong. But the two over came their first impressions and became best friends. The kids loved it.

This is a good lesson in accepting new kids. While it's unfortunate it's only because she was a really good runner, I like how the little puppies didn't let first impressions rule.

This is one that Madison chose herself at the library. She has good taste. Cute, charming, clever. I'll definitely look for others in this series.

A cute book about how friendship sometimes comes about in unexpected ways.

My kids get the biggest kick out of Gaspard's tantrum in this story.
