(4) K-3 Illustrated by Mary Whyte. Sentimental watercolors embellish this wistful story in which Annie's family moves to a house on the beach, leaving old friends behind. But Grandma shows Annie her box of mementos and helps her create her own "box of friends." Each object saved represents a happy moment shared with a friend and helps Annie realize that she can form new ties in a new place.
