(3) K-3 Ready-to-Read: Robin Hill School series. Illustrated by Mike Gordon. After some male classmates refuse to let Emma play soccer, she gets mad, then gets busy organizing an all-girl team, although fear not: the tale doesn't end with the predictable boys-versus-girls face-off. The story is so solid that one forgets one is reading an early reader book, and although the images are cartoony, Gordon manages to imbue each kid with personality.
