Jada Jones series.
Illustrated by
Vanessa Brantley Newton.
Lyons's new early reader series stars African American fourth grader Jada, who makes new friends through rock-collecting (Rock Star) and runs for student council (Class Act). Readers will admire and relate to smart, sincere Jada, who does the right thing even when it's hard. Newton's purple-accented black-and-white illustrations of Jada and her diverse group of classmates are warm and expressive. Review covers these Jada Jones titles: Class Act and Rock Star.
