This book was quite good. At first I was worried the differing perspectives would be confusing, but instead I found it illuminated the different ways the march would be viewed and the different reasons for attending. It also showed that the march wasn't perfect: I had no idea that they only allowed one woman to speak and that they shunted them off onto a different street before the media arrived. Still, you're struck by how well the whole thing worked. A great title.

Wilhemina, known as Will, is happy living on a Zimbabwean farm. Then her father dies, the farm gets sold, and she is shipped off to boarding school. Though I am loathe to recommend any book that has a villain named Samantha, this book touched my heart. I love Rundell's descriptions of the land and life in Zimbabwe. An excellent title.

I really liked this quirky graphic novel. The Spanish wasn't overwhelming. and I liked learning about lowriders. Car culture isn't something I know a lot about, or see represented often in books for middle grade readers.

I enjoyed this story about Suzanne, an eleven year old learning about friendship, herself, and Emily Dickinson. A cute story about that time in between childhood and adolescence.

An awesome picture book outlining all kinds of different things you can imagine. Will be purchasing for my library.

I am not sure I believe Furious Jones is twelve, but otherwise this is a very enjoyable mystery.

Recess was never my favorite subject, but this is a great collection of stories that readers will enjoy. No recess love required.

A cute take on Macbeth. Accessible for a younger audience but still fairly true to the tale.

A beautifully illustrated story of Shackleton's failed Antarctic journey. I wish I had been more captivated by it, but I found it sort of tedious. They were lucky though!
