The Treasure on Gold Street

Resumen

Hannah loves her friend Isabel. Isabel doesn’t criticize. She’s never in a hurry. And—unlike other grownups and some bigger kids—she doesn’t tell Hannah what to do. But the day comes when Hannah begins to realize that Isabel is different. On Isabel’s birthday, everyone on Gold Street recognizes that she is the neighborhood’s real treasure.
