(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Julia Rothman. The Spinellis dispense advice on topics including homework, siblings, and the environment. Each entry begins with a quote from a children's book followed by a paragraph of advice and a "promise" readers can make about the subject at hand. It's a tad condescending, but receptive readers will find many tidbits for reflection in this compendium of common sense and wisdom.
