(4) 1-3 Sylvie Scruggs series. Illustrated by Charles Santoso. In this older chapter book, nine-year-old Sylvie is determined to stop her BFF, Miranda Tan, from becoming friends with new boy Georgie Diaz before Miranda's birthday party. But Sylvie's plan is built on lies. Themes of friendship and honesty are strong, though Sylvie's self-torment is often unnecessary and unbelievable. Black-and-white illustrations bring the multiethnic neighborhood to life.
