A New Room for William

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Carol Thompson. With the aid of his understanding mother, a young boy adapts to a new home. William picks out wallpaper for his new room and finds a friend next door. Dad is only shown in a family photo--a mystery cleared up at the end when William's mom assures him that he'll be able to choose paper for his room at his dad's new house, too. Splashy mixed-media illustrations accompany the reassuring story.
