My aunt gifted my class library the Missouri Truman Award Nominees for next school year! I spent some time this morning getting them labeled to put on the shelves. I‘m taking the tagged home to hopefully read soon.

My goal is to finish both of these by Sunday night. I'm about 1/2 through Mickey 7 and I have about 100 pages left on Way Station. Easy Peasy.

“The Germans Arrived

in June of 1941

the beginning of summer

when hope

should have

hung in blue-filled skies.

But hope burned away

in the heat of summer.

First came the yellow armbands

branding all us Jews.

Then came the fences

closing out the rest of the world.”

This book had me bawling! This is a middle grade novel from Ellen Hopkins but I will always read anything she writes. She is one of my absolute favorite authors of verse novels. Somehow this one slipped through the cracks because I thought I had read all of her books so I‘m glad I was able to read it. Just an absolute masterpiece just like all of her others.
