Grace Zong.
When Mrs. McBee announces she is leaving the school, her students come together to help her pack up her room. McLellan explains with heart and understanding that saying goodbye isn't easy, and that not all children process change the same way. Combined with Zong's appealing acrylic and gouache illustrations, this tender book is a welcome addition to the school-story canon.
