pickI really enjoyed this historical fiction middle grade novel. I picked it out because it‘s nominated for the William Allen White Children‘s Book Award for next year. Beans is a funny & relatable narrator. The situations he gets into are hilarious to read about. It feels like a good first book for #MiddleGradeMay
pickReally enjoyed this historical novel set in Key West during the 1930s. It was great on #audiobook! #middlegrademay
pickI'm not usually a huge fan of historical fiction, but this was great! Super-fast middle grade read set in Key West during the Great Depression. I loved how Holm showed the dire straights the town and residents were in, without being too, well, depressing. Lots of local color included too.
pickGreat follow up to the book Turtle in Paradise. Though set during the Depression I still think kids can relate to the characters. Glad this book came along because I really enjoyed the kids from the first book!
pickAnd incredible companion to turtle in paradise you will smile laugh and fall in love with beans as he wanders the streets of early Key West.
