My Friend Isabelle

(4) PS Illustrated by Bryan Gough & Bryan Gough. Charlie describes his Friday visits with Isabelle, noting some of their differences ("I run fast. Isabelle takes her time"), and what they like to do ("We dance to Stevie Wonder. Isabelle teaches me how to...twirl"). While the simple text and attractive block-print-looking art suggest it, only the afterword explains that Isabelle is a child with Down syndrome. Teachers may appreciate this slight but pleasant story.
