When Grandma Gives You a Lemon Tree

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Lorraine Rocha. When her grandmother gifts her with not a computer but a lemon tree, the disappointed birthday girl decides to make lemonade. This how-to (recipe included) features the girl's bossy-spunky narration (when juicing lemons: "Come on--squeeze, squeeze, squeeze-a-roo!") and summer-kissed art that portrays the whole community pitching in to support the lemonade stand. The girl's profits go toward something surprising for the whole block.
