(4) K-3 Illustrated by Penny Weber. New student Roberta is bounced from social group to social group whenever it's discovered that one of her traits (her hairstyle, her love of playgrounds) diverges from the clique's. Readers will register Moss's sober critique of conformity as they cheer Roberta's self-awareness. Weber's art isn't polished, but she has a knack for capturing Roberta's reactions.
