Gus and Grandpa and Show-and-Tell

48 pp. | Farrar | August, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-374-32819-6 $$13.00
(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Catherine Stock. Second-grader Gus has difficulty finding things to take to school for show-and-tell. Though his family offers advice, Gus is continually shown up by other kids--until he gets an idea for bringing a piece of living history into the classroom. This chapter book records second-grade anxiety simply and believably; the close relationship of Gus and Grandpa is reflected in the loosely drawn color illustrations.
