Nikki & Deja: Substitute Trouble

108 pp. | Clarion | July, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-0-547-61565-3 $14.99
(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Laura Freeman. Third graders Nikki and Deja are uneasy with the way their classmates misbehave for the substitute teacher. But when they get a new strict sub, classroom morale plummets as they wait for their adored teacher's return. The always-relatable duo's struggles ring true, and occasional full-page and spot black-and-white illustrations of classroom scenes break up the short, accessible chapters.
