Beast Feast
A comical read with many delightfully creepy mentions, this tale captures the wonder of developing unique friendships.
PREMIUM
The Story of Civil War Hero Robert Smalls
Recommended for purchase in libraries where biographies for younger readers are in demand.
PREMIUM
If We Were Giants
The book’s eco-conscious message is strong, but the delivery is heavy-handed and often confusing; it is obvious that Kirra has gone through major trauma, but her feelings and recovery get lost in a meandering plot involving complicated large-scale puppetry and predictable pitfalls. Not recommended.
PREMIUM
The Degenerates
Although this is an additional selection for libraries that have large historical fiction readership, the diversity of the characters’ identities, across racial, gender, and the alarmingly blurred lines of “disability,” may garner a second look for some collections.
PREMIUM
The Keeper of Wild Words
Peter H. Reynold’s The Word Collector is a more creative celebration of words that will likely be appreciated by a young audience.
PREMIUM
Ember
Not a first purchase, but recommended for libraries where heartwarming animal or disaster fiction series are popular with late elementary readers.
The Blossom and the Firefly
Smith’s fast-paced and compelling historical novel would be a valued addition to any collection.
