Grade 2-3?Annie and Nini are best friends until Nini's relatives from Russia move in with her family. Nini is forced to spend time with her cousin Irina at the expense of her friendship. When Annie is invited to join the cousins, Nini, still resentful about the newcomer, angrily tells Irina off. Finally, Nini's mother resolves the conflict when she orders the girls to get along. The characters never grow in this brief story, and they are forever looking to the adults to solve all their problems. Ellen Conford's Can Do, Jenny Archer (Little, Brown, 1993), in which the kids work out conflicts on their own and grow in the process, is a better choice for this age group.?Linda L.
