Save Me A Seat tells the perspectives of Joe and Ravi as they begin fifth grade.  Joe has lived in the same town all his life, but this year will be different because his best friends have moved away.  Ravi's family has just moved to America from India and even though he was a star student in India he's having a hard time fitting in.  Add to this the class bully and kleptomaniac, Dillon and you've got an unlikely recipe for friendship.  This is an enjoyable read that helps us to see that sometimes you can find friendship in the most unlikely places.
