Yard Sale by Eve Bunting illustrated by Lauren Castillo*

Callie's family is moving to a small apartment so they must sell most of their possessions at a yard sale.  Told from Callie's perspective, Ms. Bunting portrays how a child may feel as a family endures unwelcome change.  She really captures a child's feelings and fears well.
This book has the potential to spark a lot of discussion with inferences.
Strategies: connections, inferring
**Highly recommend.
