OLD PEOPLE, FROGS, AND ALBERT
by Nancy Hope Wilson

Albert, a fourth grader, is uncomfortable around old people, but he really likes frogs, Grammy, and Mr. Spear, who helped him overcome his reading problem.  With a message reminiscent of Tomie de Paola’s  Now One Foot, Now the Other, this 58 page novel brings together youth and aging to demonstrate a unique bond that can form through respect, compassion, and courage.
