This fantasy adventure featuring protagonists of color will be enjoyed by fans of the “Legacy of Orisha” and “Ember in the Ashes” series, and is recommended for middle school collections.
An earnest message and charming illustrations grow more poignant under closer reading. Highly recommended.
Jonnie, Shingoose, and Shannacappo train a poignant spotlight onto the difficulties Indigenous women face. Every library should have a copy of this potent work.
An elegant, effective work. Download this now, read it immediately, share it with everyone you know. An educated citizenry is our best hope.
An important book that demands to be seen. It adds to the conversation of #OwnVoices and speaks to a young person’s need for expression and social justice.
Caldecott-winning author Cordell and the iconic Mister Rogers have a lot of neighbors. Buy multiple copies.
Henry’s hero journey is replete with pitfalls and moments of self awareness, both of which lead him to a better understanding of why he does what he does (he’s lonely) and why his family is so overprotective (they love him). Any kid who recognizes that they have weaknesses will identify with and cheer for Henry. Highly recommended for libraries that serve tweens.
