(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Jamie Harper. In her fifth story, third grader Emma wants to impress her long-distance, divorced father. She hopes winning a prize during Winter Games Day will do the trick. But the pressure of competition is getting to all the kids, even temporarily coming between Emma and her best friend. Breezy black-and-white illustrations keep the book light as the text deals with its weighty issues.
