INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Graff, Lisa

Double Dog Dare

(3) 4-6 Francine and Kansas (who's new to Auden Elementary School) are competing to be the next Media Club news anchor: whoever performs the most dares will win. They eventually realize they have something in common: their parents' upsetting divorces. Graff combines mild gross-out humor with real-life problems of fourth graders. The story has an enjoyable arc with a satisfying ending.
