Welcome to Litsy!

My Grandma made this crab meat dip for every family holiday dinner. Each one of my kids as well as my dad, my brother and even me have made ourselves sick eating too much of it. Last year after my mom died my brother couldn‘t find the recipe. I had it as written on the green paper by one of my sons several years ago. I translated it to the white paper for family sharing. #LitsyLoveBingo

I could see a middle schooler or even a 4th or 5th graders really loving this books. I think it is a great chapter book where you can really relate to what is happening and it creates a bond with the character. Defiantly a good free choice book and maybe a read aloud.

Merci Suárez Changes Gears by Meg Medina, Merci navigates new challenges at her elite school and at home. As a scholarship student, she faces social struggles while her grandfather‘s Alzheimer‘s progresses, adding family responsibilities. Balancing loyalty to family with her desire for independence, Merci learns resilience, empathy, and the power of family bonds amid change and uncertainty in this coming-of-age story.
