Summary
Ira Crumb is the new kid in town, and he knows what that means: when the new school year starts, he’ll play alone at recess, eat alone at lunch, and walk home alone at the end of the day. So… Ira launches a campaign to befriend neighbourhood kids before the first day. But his best-laid plans - a sandwich stand! A dance-off! - fall flat, and playing it cool doesn’t seem to work either. Just as Ira decides school will be HORRIBLE, a comical misunderstanding connects him with Malcolm, who was the new kid last year and totally gets it - and who, it turns out, will make a pretty good friend. Grades K-3. 2017.
