Posted this book for #SundayFunday and now can't get it out of my mind. It got me through 4th and 5th grade. Thanks, Ms. Blume. 🧡💜💛

I will always be indebted to Judy Blume for getting me through some rough patched in my childhood. Back in 1975, this 10-year-old girl was the ONLY student in her class whose parents were going through a divorce. She thought her life was over. Enter this book. No one was writing for kids my age about these kind of issues ... until Ms. Blume. She had the pulse of Gen X kids, and she saved a lot of us. 🧡💜💛

I read and highly recommend the original middle grade chapter book Refugee by Alan Gratz frequently. This graphic novel version still brings a lot of the emotion but with using panels & speech bubbles paired with illustrations instead of descriptive paragraphs of text.

starry starry night,
witches fly through midnight sky —
the moon full and bright. 🌕

Sugar finds herself in foster care after her mom and her lose their home. While on the road, she adopts a little dog named Shush, who is going to be a helper dog.

I love that these books meant for kids do not shy away from tough topics that some children face.
