Selah's growth and understanding of how her brain and body work gives the reader so much insight to life as a person living on the spectrum. I listened to this novel and I do feel that a free verse novel deserves to be read in print. There were so many times as I listened that I wondered how the words were arranged on the page. Book Club will be discussing this one soon and I'm eager to hear how the students liked it. Grades 4 and up.

Students recommended this novel and I was eager to read it. I can understand why they enjoyed it. A group of smart, justice-seeking children risk their freedom to head back into a plantation to save others. As an adult reader, I found the idea of a quest too simplistic. While I am sure the author did not intend to treat escaping from slavery like a game, I could not reconcile the children's attitudes with the extreme danger they were in. (Maybe it was the narration? Some of the character's voices were irksome) Grades 6 and up. A basic understanding of Southern plantation life and the violence of slavery is needed.

Kicking off the new year with a new graphic novel. Hilarious and poignant in equal parts. Author Paul Gilligan is remembering a moment of his life that coincided with the release of the movie Jaws. Paul was never a particularly brave and courageous child and this time in his life when he’s 10 years old in 1975 is a peek at what it means to truly be a good friend and how to come into your own and believe in yourself. Grades 6 and up.
