Reach for this book when your child is facing the bittersweet end of a school year, struggling with the anxiety of a new baby in the house, or navigating the complicated feelings of being angry at a parent. It is an ideal bridge for children who are beginning to outgrow early chapter books but still need a relatable, humorous guide through the messy transitions of elementary life. Clementine is a fiercely original and sensitive third-grader who is currently boycotting her father over his diet, worrying about her mother's 'nesting' habits, and dreading the goodbye to her beloved teacher. The story masterfully handles the concept of 'growing up' without losing the whimsical perspective of childhood. Parents will appreciate how it models healthy emotional expression and the realization that change, while scary, doesn't mean losing who you are.
