Summary: My Grandma's the Mayor
Comment: We often hear rhetoric about the importance of community spirit and kids are drilled with "it is better to give then receive". Through a touching story about Annie and her Grandma, the mayor, the author actually teaches kids the rewards of community involvement, but she acknowledges that it doesn't come without a cost. As Annie finds out, it can be tough to have your parent, or grandparent, heavily involved in the community. However, when there is a fire at an apartment house, Annie sees her Grandmother's commitment to helping her community through the crisis. Annie begins to understand the importance of her Grandmother's involvement, and she is filled with pride and is inspired to join in the effort to help. As with all of Marjorie White Pellegrino's books, the characters will move you, and teach you. This book should be in every elementary school library in the country.
