Make Way for Dyamonde Daniel by Nikki Grimes

3.0

Make Way for Dyamonde Daniel is the first in a series of early chapter books featuring - who else? - Dyamonde Daniel. Dyamonde is the kind of kiddo that we would love more of our young students to look up to. She's proud of her smarts, stands up to (and then befriends!) the sulky new kid, and has a sense of humor that will make early readers laugh out loud.

The illustrations throughout only added to this enjoyable reading experience. As Dyamonde is a third grader herself, her series seems perfect for younger elementary schoolers.
