(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Abigail Marble. After beloved and fiercely independent Great-aunt Tannie falls and breaks her ankle, eight-year-old Jenna and her mom persuade Tannie to leave Mississippi and live with them in Virginia. But it's not an easy transition: bossy (and fearful) Mom initially forbids Tannie to do anything by herself. It's a realistic multigenerational story, sweet but never saccharine, with love at its core.
