This book might be better for parents/the home than in the classroom, but would still be a cute book for the classroom library!
“It was nice to have someone there in the dark when the scaries were around.“
Elmore Green gets a new sibling after being an only child. A book about sibling jealousy, adjusting to a new sibling, and realizing they can be your best friend!
I don't know how young I was when I read this but when one of the bingo squares for library SRP bingo was “Reread a childhood favorite“ I knew this was the one.
Man, reading this with adult eyes-this book still gutted me. I was sitting at lunch telling myself don't cry. I really resonate with this story-change the details but the ugly duckling sister was me growing up.
I just...this book, man...I have to get a copy for my shelves.
This was really good. Tough read at times. My #bookspin for March @TheAromaofBooks

I'm already reading The Survivors for #authoramonth so perfect!
5⭐️ Wow! I‘m glad that I decided to give this book a try. What a captivating story! I love how she uses dual-timeline and that she brings in another individual as a close observer of an intense sibling rivalry. Mary Lawson is a wonderful story-teller I want to read her other books now
Spending 1 hour on a treadmill is a chore so I have been listening to podcasts while struggling with my run/walk. And I came across this episode discussing Mary Lawson. Never heard of her, never read her books… but the interview intrigued me and Libby has the tagged book. Hurrah! I started it and kinda like her writing… it‘s engaging, too!

Bittersweet coming-of-age story about #twins growing up on an island in the Chesapeake Bay. Picture is of a different bay in Maryland but gives a good idea of the landscape. #newyearnewbooks
