Walter, Everything Will Be Alright

After a summer filled with front porch chats and fishing lessons at Lake Hickory Ridge with Grandma Della and Grandpa Curtis, Walter returns home with third grade right around the corner. He's excited to hear what his best buddies, Johnny and Tommy, did while school was out and all about their latest adventures. But what about Darla?How was her summer? Will she be in his class this year? Will she still like him? What did three whole months change?As the first day of third grade gets closer, Walter's imagination is filled with questions and what-ifs. Why does he have to worry so much?Sometimes growing up means learning that not every question has an answer right away-and maybe something . . . or someone shows you there was nothing to worry about after all. Heartfelt, funny, and full of the everyday drama of elementary school life, Walter's latest story reminds us that there are life lessons to show that things might just turn out better than we think.
