(2) 4-6 Top-Secret Diary of Celie Valentine series. Illustrated by Johanna Wright. Ten-year-old Celie (Friendship Over!) continues her ultra-honest (and at times unintentionally funny) journal. Here she's dealing with changing friendship dynamics; older sister Jo surreptitiously texting--and possibly more--with a boy; and, most worrying, her grandmother's worsening memory problems. Celie's voice is fresh, unselfconscious, and emphatic. Much of the book's considerable humor, and pathos, are communicated in Celie's heartfelt sketches, diagrams, and notes.
