![]() ![]() ![]() I like Dyamonde’s demeanor and I like her friendship with Free. Dyamonde decides to confront him about his sour mood and before long, she finds that she and Free get along just fine. He’s just scowling and grunting and scaring off other kids just by being big and looking mad all the time. And unlike Dyamonde, he isn’t even trying to get along. But she soon forgets all about her own isolation because the new boy, Free is even more of an outsider than she is. Sure, other girls are nice enough, but they aren’t really inviting her into their group and she really misses her best friend Alisha. She recently moved because of her parents recent divorced and she’s having a tough time making friends. So I think it’s fair to say it is probably about the right level for a Level M reader.ĭyamonde’s life is not quite as she’d like it. ![]() ![]() I’ve seen this listed as a Level N elsewhere. (Hint: Henry and Mudge and Frog and Toad are what I think of when I think of Level K). Perma-bound is calling this a Guided Reading Level K which makes you wonder if Perma-bound has ever seen an actual Level K book. Make Way for Dyamonde Daniel by Nikki Grimes ![]()
