I have found the Orca Hi-Lo publications <https://www.orcabook.com/Hi-Lo>
to be pretty solid. As for persuading her to make the shift, that's a
toughie if social pressure isn't already moving her forward. All I can
think is to try to coax her to try something new by reassuring her she can
always return to Judy Moody. Maybe if she has success with one additional
book, that will inspire her confidence and allow her to imagine something
new for herself...
