Herbie Jones Moves On

78 pp. | Putnam | June, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-399-23635-X $$14.99
(4) 1-3 Herbie learns that his best friend Raymond has to move to Texas in just a week. There are many realistic and emotionally satisfying details to the school story, but the timeline seems rushed (the family puts their house on the market and completes the sale in a week) and the ending, in which Raymond comes to school on Monday after his parents change their minds, is disappointing.
