This first book in a series could stand alone but Dyamonde Daniel is exactly the type of character you'll want to keep in your life. She's confident, smart, spunky, friendly, down to earth---and she'll tell you so! After moving to the Bronx from Brooklyn when her parents divorced, Dyamonde has had to make some changes adapting to her new neighborhood. She hasn't been the new girl long before a new boy moves in and the story now becomes about more than just Dyamonde's personal growth. Written in short chapters and at just over 100 pages, this illustrated chapter book is highly accessible and easy to read. The illustrations, done simply in broad strokes of blank ink, are excellent and add important perspective to the story. Source: Denver Public Library recommended reads Age Range: 6-11 Evaluation of Quality: Nikki Grimes vibrantly describes the inner city life and the memorable and assertive protagonist, Dyamonde, in this story about working past first impressions and making new friends. Assessment of potential use: I would use this book in school curriculum because there are many lessons and positive conversion starters that can be gleaned from this book. Assessment of appeal to children: This book portrays African American characters and communities in a positive and non-stereotypical way that relates to the lived experience of many children.
How she wins over another new kid, the surly boy in her homeroom, drives the plot in this first book in the new chapter book series by Grimes. Appartient à la sérieDyamonde Daniel (1) Prix et récompensesListes notables
