Cristina Keeps a Promise
By Virginia Kroll

(Grades K-3) Cristina can't believe that her favorite author will be in town for a booksigning! She plans to go. In the meantime, she helps her brother, Victor, practice for the Special Olympics race that is coming up. "You're gonna be there for my race, right, Cristina?" Victor asks. "I'll be there, I promise." Cristina says.

Then, the day before the Special Olympics, Cristina remembers than the author-signing is tomorrow, the day of Victor's race! Cristina has an important decision to make.

Reviews
(reviewed with Good Neighbor Nicholas) "Colorful cartoon illustrations reflect the tone in each book. Solid additions to collections looking for character-education materials. Both stories can be read independently or used as read-alouds in classroom settings." School Library Journal
