(3) 1-3 Jackson Friends series. Calliope's grandparents have passed away, so she sadly wonders how she'll be able to participate in her class's Grandparents' Day celebration. Edwards's portrayal of grade school life (right down to Matthew "Stinky" Stern's incessant teasing) will resonate with young readers. Doodles and squiggly lines surround many of the black-and-white illustrations, which effectively articulate Calliope's thoughts.
