Kate Messner recommends
Coming Up Short (2022)
Laurie Morrison
"A pitch-perfect middle school sports story that captures all the joy, love, and messiness of growing up, Coming Up Short hits an absolute home run."
A Song Called Home (2022)
Sara Zarr
"Sara Zarr's debut novel for middle grade readers is beautiful, honest, and bursting with hope--a powerful story about growing up, weathering change, and creating the family you need."
Meant to Be (2022)
Jo Knowles
"Meant to Be shines a light on the wonderful, kindhearted kids who sometimes fall through the cracks. Ivy's voice - and her bike-fixing, pancake-making, friendship-mending determination - will stay with me for a long time."
