(3) K-3 Illustrated by Cornelius Van Wright & Ying-Hwa Hu. When her little brother, J. T., gets all the attention, Phyllis Mae starts to resent him. Her concerned mother and grandmother prepare a special Daughter's Day celebration just for her, but pesky J. T. almost succeeds in ruining it. This satisfying family story illustrated with engaging, realistic watercolor and pencil artwork depicts a contemporary African-American household with two lively children.
