(4) K-3 Illustrated by Judy Stead. When she first meets Sarah, who uses a wheelchair, the narrator feels awkward and is afraid she'll say the wrong thing. Once the girls discover all the interests they have in common--such as collecting rocks, reading books, and ballet--they soon become best friends. The rhyming text's message is obvious, but the playful illustrations keep the tone light.
