pick3 ⭐ This book is well done. It‘s a nice read. The sad part is I think it‘s mostly autobiographical. Tori Spelling was raised by one of the richest men in media and had everything she could want but nothing she did want. I have unfortunately watched things happen in her life due to media that while this book is lovely it makes me incredibly sad for her.
so-so2.5 To be honest I like Seth Meyers bio on the cover better than I like the book. This book is fine. It‘s about a bear that doesn‘t want to admit they are scared while their rabbit friend is adventurous. Bear eventually overcomes their fright when a friend needs help. I wish the story might have gotten into everything that bear did to go on an adventure while not going on an adventure was an adventure.

“If my cells don't work and Beep dies. Because I'll really need you. And I might not be my friend anymore.”
I would most definitely have this book in my classroom because it covers some very heavy topics in a realistic way.
pickKat, the girl in the family who everyone turns to when things get difficult. Especially now, when her beloved younger brother Beep is in his second leukemia relapse, and a bone marrow transplant from Kat may be his only chance. She‘s worried that she may not be up to the job: She can't finish homework, she's dealing with lost friendships, not being on the soccer team, and lots of heartache from a longing crush on her old best friend.
“The scents of huckleberries, pine, and cedar imprint on the cubs. While their eyes come to know the mountains, their noses explore miles beyond what they can see.”
This book would be useful for the older grades. This book does a great job with its illustrations that allow children to stay focused and attentive throughout. This book also does a great job at vocabulary. Throughout the book there are blurbs explaining the word, so it would allow for a great vocabulary lesson.
