Summary

Newbery Honor and Coretta Scott King Author Award winner Renée  Watson  continues her charming young middle grade series starring Ryan Hart, a girl who is pure spirit and sunshine. 
 
Ryan Hart loves her family and friends. She's looking forward to summer vacation, spending time with loved ones, and her first trip to sleepaway camp! But when an unexpected camper shows up, Ryan finds it's hard to share your best friend and harder to be a friend to someone who isn't a good friend to you.  She's also waiting for her new sister to be born -- and hoping the baby doesn't ruin everything. The Hart family is experiencing a lot of changes, and Ryan needs to grow her patience in many ways, find ways to share the love, meet new challenges, and grow into the leader her mom and dad named her to be. This summer and the start of fifth grade just might give Ryan the chance to show how she grows and glows!

    A golden retriever learns to cope with the anxieties of moving house in this charming picture book. 
 
Boomer’s ready for his morning walk. Here’s his leash. There’s the door. But try as he might, he can’t get anyone to pay attention to him. The humans in the house don’t rush out the door after breakfast as they normally do. And, most confusing of all, strangers arrive to pack all the things in Boomer’s house into boxes. There’s definitely something unusual going on . . . 
 
The simple text and heartwarming pictures charmingly depict Boomer’s confusion, anxiety, concern, and ultimate delight on this day familiar to all: moving day. 
 
“Humorously sympathizing with the tribulations of moving, this endearing picture book will soothe the anxieties of children facing a move.” —Booklist
