Children and adults alike will be inspired to make changes in their own lives to combat climate change after reading this poignant tale.
A smart, necessary, and hopeful middle grade debut that expertly balances a gentle, heartwarming tone with searing insight into systemic racism. Hand to readers who enjoyed Lisa Ramee’s A Good Kind of Trouble or Kekla Magoon’s The Season of Styx Malone.
Ilett’s debut is full of feeling: the comfort of a folktale, the dazzle of the magical, and the trials and triumphs of life. Gail is a true heroine, and the world of children’s literature is lucky to have her.
This sensitive, slightly spooky tale will spur middle graders to mull the importance of fostering welcoming communities.
The bright colors and simple text will appeal to young readers. A great story to start conversations about how animals should be treated.
Reynolds and Kendi eloquently challenge the common narrative attached to U.S. history. This adaptation, like the 2016 adult title, will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact. Highly recommended for libraries serving middle and high school students.
