Leah and Candace Leap Into Spring begins the first day of school at Nash Elementary after Christmas break. The girls are third graders. Frannie Lynn, the school bully, has struck again. Poor Candace! She is bearing the brunt of Frannie Lynn’s bullying this year. Leah and Candace are working hard to stay the top students in Mrs. Casey’s class. Their teacher is challenging the class with multiplication and division problems. Plus, her students will perform a play in front of the whole school, their families, and the community in March. How do Leah and Candace deal with their everyday stressors as well as unexpected challenges?

Look Out, Fourth Grade is the third book in a series of children’s adventure/fantasy books by Laura Everly. The first of her adventures is The Mighty Pond Hoppers, and the second is Leah and Candace Leap Into Spring. Leah and Candace are neighbors, best friends, and students in Mrs. Casey’s third grade class at Nash Elementary. In Look Out, Fourth Grade, Mrs. Casey and her third grade class face a troubling sight in the auditorium where the class play is being set up. With only five days left before their performance of “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” there are oodles of problems that need to be fixed. As the third grade class gets closer to becoming fourth graders, Leah and Candace lead the way in helping their classmates overcome several difficulties. Leah and Candace still rely on their secret escape vehicle, the back seat of a 1957 Chevy, to get away from the stress that comes from trying to be good daughters, friends, and classmates. Not only do the girls work as a great support system for one another, but also for their friends and families. The two are a great team and push themselves to make the right choices.

For every athlete or sports fanatic who knows she's just as good as the guys. This is for fans of The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen, Grace, Gold, and Glory by Gabrielle Douglass and Breakaway: Beyond the Goal by Alex Morgan. The summer before Caleb and Tessa enter high school, friendship has blossomed into a relationship . . . and their playful sports days are coming to an end.

Tessa doesn’t want to end her career as a loser. She really enjoys playing, and if she’s being honest, she likes it even more than running cross-country. So what if she decided to play football instead? What would happen between her and Caleb? Or between her two best friends, who are counting on her to try out for cross-country with them?
