(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Jamie Harper. Eight-year-old Emma, an only child, has a lot to adjust to when she and her single mother invite Anthony, four, to live with them temporarily. Emma's self-centeredness and insecurities ring true, and her reaction to a new child in the house is realistic. The breezy, easy-to-read novel is heavily illustrated with line drawings, which humorously exaggerate the story's broad emotions.
