YOUNGER FICTION
McKenna, Colleen O'Shaughnessy

Third Grade Ghouls

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Stephanie Roth. Third-grader Gordie has plenty to worry about: his locker partner (a girl); his Halloween costume; the fact that it looks like he's lost his best friend Lamont to new kid Red. Although these easy chapter books overly rely upon contrivance and are a bit too busy, the characters and schoolroom dynamics are funny and true to type, and Gordie's conscience always gets the best of him. Each book includes black-and-white illustrations. [Review covers these titles: Doggone...Third Grade!, Third Grade Ghouls, and Third Grade Stinks!]
