Becoming Naomi Leon | Pam Munoz Ryan
2 posts | 10 read | 4 to read
A reissue of Pam Munoz Ryan's bestselling backlist with a distinctive author treatment and new cover art by Raul Colon. Naomi Soledad Leon Outlaw has had a lot to contend with in her young life, her name for one. Then there are her clothes (sewn in polyester by Gram), her difficulty speaking up, and her status at school as "nobody special." But according to Gram, most problems can be overcome with positive thinking. And with Gram and her little brother, Owen, Naomi's life at Avocado Acres Trailer Rancho in California is happy and peaceful...until their mother reappears after seven years of being gone, stirring up all sorts of questions and challenging Naomi to discover and proclaim who she really is.

This has been on my to-read list for quite a while. Naomi and her younger brother have lived with their great-grandmother for the last seven years since their mother abandoned them. When she suddenly shows up again, Naomi isn‘t sure how to feel about it. This is a great middle grade novel that focuses on Latinx characters and culture. #MiddleGradeMay
