(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Meg Park. Anna's two best friends, Isabel and Sadie, convince her to enter her dachshund, Banana, in the Puppy Parade. But when the girls take over the preparations, Anna is afraid her friends think that Banana isn't good enough. Park's illustrations depict a diverse cast of characters (with Anna's non-white family at the center) in this friendship-affirming tale of elementary-school conflict.
