I think this would be an excellent choice for beginning readers that are moving from picture books into reading chapter books. I am thrilled with this series, and can't wait to get them on the shelves! In "Rich" Grimes illustrates with ease that there are many ways to be "rich" besides being money rich. These are accessible books, with short chapters, cute illustrations, and real life problems that kids go through. In "Rich" Dyamonde is trying to figure out what makes Damaris Dancer so quiet, while Free wants to make some money from the poetry contest that the local library is sponsoring. The two kids bond a bit over their names, and start to go on adventures together. In the first book, Dyamonde ends up befriending new boy Free. Dyamonde is trying to make friends, but she misses her old friend Alisha. After her folks split, her mom moved Dyamonde from Brooklyn up to Washington Heights. ![]() Nikki Grimes has created Dyamonde Daniel who may be short, but has a big mouth to make up for it. ![]() Finally, finally, FINALLY and early reader featuring a spunky African American girl to put on the shelves beside Clementine, Ivy & Bean and the rest. ![]()
