Guest, Elissa Haden, Iris and
Walter. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2012. EARLY READER.
When Iris and her family moved
from their house in the city, Iris was sad. She missed everything about her old
house, but especially the children she knew. Her family’s house in the county
is large and doesn’t seem to have any children nearby. Can Iris find a way to
be happy at her new house. Will she be able to meet a new friend?
Although the illustrations are
good and complement the text, the story leaves something to be desired, even
for an easy reader. Readers learning to read who like friendship and moving
stories, however, will still probably like this book. EL (K-3). OPTIONAL.
Reviewer: Kira M, Youth Services Librarian, WHI Public Library.
