Here are five quick reviews of graphic novels I've read in the past few weeks.
Saturday, April 26 is my favorite day of the year! That's right, it's time for Teen Lit Con again in Mendota Heights, Minnesota! I'm excited to be presenting for the sixth year.
How about some recent and forthcoming releases from Canadian middle grade authors? Canada seems nice, doesn't it?
Eventually, I decided that the nefarious plotting of my young tontine contenders was not only acceptable for middle grade but also funny—for the same reason that Home Alone is a comedy and not a horror movie.
Literally everyone in this fast-paced story is Up To Something and it's so satisfying as it's all revealed.
It's probably not wholly accurate to say that representation of trans and nonbinary characters seems more important than ever (again, it's always been important), but wow, does it sure feel extra necessary these days.
A great book told in two standout voices that takes young people and their interactions in the world seriously. A really good read.
Our characters, Bee and Alice, talk about the same things middle-grade readers do: how the world works, bodies, queerness, and what is fair and right.
