Description

"An illustrated book that will appeal to readers of all ages, The Brand New Kid introduces two little girls who show true compassion when a not-so-ordinary boy joins their classroom. Their new classmate is Lazlo S. Gazky, who has just come to this country from Hungary. Lazlo's first days at Brookhaven School are a nightmare: His "different" looks and manner set him apart from the other children and inspire the kind of teasing elementary school kids and their parents will quickly recognize. Ellie McSnelly and Carrie O'Toole, however, after initially joining in the taunting, offer Lazlo a hand of friendship and prove to the rest of the class that looking different is not such a bad thing." -From the Publisher
