1-3Bea Garcia series.
Latina American Bea Garcia tells the story of her life in words and pictures in this series-starting chapter book. Bea's best friend/next-door neighbor, Yvonne, moved to Australia (on Bea's eighth birthday of all days!), and "the monster" Bert has moved in. The book's format--Bea's own humorous doodles and first-person narration--allows the relatable character to explore her imagination and express her feelings.
