Second grade friends

Second-grader Emily is tired of pumpkins being at the center of every lesson in school, but she is not prepared when a jealous friend damages the jack-o-lantern portrait Emily made for Open House.

Second-grader Emily's memorable day includes a new school bus, a forgotten lunch bag, a special cafeteria meal, and a new friendship.

Second-grader Emily worries that her grandfather, who has narcolepsy, will fall asleep when he visits her class to talk about Veterans Day.
