2 posts | 8 read | 3 to read

Four generations. Four girls. One family. An amazing new four-book series from Ann M. Martin. In 1930, Abby Nichols is eight, and can't imagine what her future holds. The best things today would be having a dime for the fair, keeping her Pops from being angry, and saving up eighty-seven cents to surprise her little sister with a tea set for Christmas. But Abby's world is changing fast. Soon there will be new siblings to take care of, a new house to move into, and new friends to meet. But there will also be good-byes to say and hard choices to make. As Abby grows older, how will she decide what sort of life will fit her best? In this incredible new series, bestselling author Ann M. Martin brings the past and the present together one girlhood at a time and shows readers the way a family grows.

Family Tree #1: Better to Wish | Ann M. Martin

pick

If, like me, your reading style started out as Babysitters Club and morphed into historical fiction, this middle grade series is for you. This seems to be a sleeper by Ann M Martin, of Babysitters Club fame. Following a family tree from the depression, Kennedy‘s assassination, on through 9/11, Martin tackles tough family topics such as mental illness, disability, and alcoholism in a straightforward but gentle way.
