I love Sara Pennypacker’s Clementine books. LOVE. THEM. So I spent the winter this year reading the first book with my first graders, who now also love Clementine. I love her more than Junie B. Jones and, dare I say it, even more than Ramona. And the kids really related to her, it was very cool to see the mischievous kids pick up on Clementine’s good intentions and different view of the world right away. They really do get her.
