Ira Crumb Makes a Pretty Good Friend - Hardcover
by Naseem Hrab (Author), Josh Holinaty (Illustrator)
Meet Ira Crumb. He's the new kid in town. 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 whole-hearted campaign to befriend neighborhood 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.NASEEM HRAB is a writer, a storyteller and a pretty good friend.
