Luna Learns a New Playground Game

About This Book

Every recess goes the same happy way: Luna lines up her chalk, gathers her friends, and it's hopscotch and tag, just like always. Near the edge of the playground, the new kid Mateo watches from his sticker-covered blue wheelchair, fingers drumming quietly. Maybe he just likes to watch, Luna thinks — hopscotch only works for jumping, after all. Then, after a long rainy week stuck indoors, Mateo rolls out with a chalkboard and a handful of colored beanbags and asks if anyone wants to learn a game called Circle Switch. Luna likes her games exactly the way they are. New feels strange. A warm story about kindness, courage, and making a circle wider.
