My Best Friend

(2) K-3 Illustrated by E. B. Lewis. "Tamika is my best friend. She just doesn't know it yet." At the neighborhood pool, six-year-old Lily tries everything to get seven-year-old Tamika's attention. In the end, Lily accepts the friendship of six-year-old Keesha, who will likely make a much better friend. The rich watercolors add roundness and life to the African-American characters.
