Wow 🤩 what a fantastic read . A middle grade story of 11year Addie, I think this book should be on the school curriculum,reminding us adults can be bullies as well as children & a child who is a bully usually has issues.
Anyway a book to whizz through in one sitting and it‘s now on bbc iPlayer as a mini series so il be diving into that !

Great illustrations, believable characters who experience a great deal of personal growth, and a well paced story. It is amazing what people do to attain their dreams. I can‘t imagine being in this situation.

I chose two books set mostly in the Pacific theater of WWII. It‘s been a long time since I read Code Talker, but I remember it being a fantastic book about the Navajo code talkers that served in the U.S. military. Grenade is told from the alternating perspectives of a Japanese teenager and a young U.S. Marine during the Battle of Okinawa.

It's Memorial Day in the US, so let's share books that take place during these two wars for #middlegrademonday !

The tagged book follows five kids from different countries who represent various elements of WW1. Their lives intersect in creative ways, each displaying courage in their own way. Engaging characters drive the story, but kids will also learn a lot about WW1 along the way- exactly what I expect from historical fiction!

I really loved this middlegrade story. A robot named Roz winds up on an island & learns to adapt to her environment & befriend the local wildlife population. She makes herself a home & a community. I thought this was a great exploration of wildlife & nature from a unique perspective. I can't wait to continue Roz's story in the next installment & I'm looking forward to seeing how the film adaptation turns out

I love K. O'Neill's art, but the story wasn't 100% there for me with this book. Lots of wordless panels that didn't convey to me what was going on, and I never fully connected with the main character's emotional struggle. Maybe the author gave me too much credit to be able to interpret her intentions, but a lot of the story felt vague or implied, and the art sometimes lacks detail, like she was used to drawing large and had to go small here...

I saw this template on Instagram so I decided to participate. This is my book. My 6th grade teacher gave me the Girl Talk series. I was 11 years old. I‘m 33 now. I reread my paperback copy of this book so many times that the front cover came off. I always liked this cover. It was a cute story and I‘ve been thinking about it ever since I read it a long time ago.
