Sauerkraut by Kelly Jones
5.0

I loved this! I loved how many affirming details there are that will make this story relatable for a lot of tweens/teens--specific references to Black Panther and other comics, access to library makerspaces, etc. I loved HD being inspired by seeing other Black geeks and realizing he's not alone, and I love how it goes into enough detail about HD's maker projects to be inspiring without being boring. Also the haunted sauerkraut crock is hilarious but also touching. Love it!
