(2) 1-3 Illustrated by Abby Carter. The Home Sweet Home Parade is coming up, and Andy wants to win the best-decorated-bike contest, even if Dolores has laid claim to it. But Andy also has higher aspirations: "What Andy Shane really, really, really wanted was to be a hero." Jacobson's light touch and respect for her audience give the ordinary happenings universal appeal. Black-and-white illustrations allow fledgling readers to join the adventures.
