Alicia64 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 This was so, so good. Excellent read. Whoever told me to read it: thank you! My boys are nine and one said as I was finishing the chapter, "You do find us good books." Where the Mountain Meets the Moon by Grace Lin. Newberry Medal Honor, 2010.

Coffeemama Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Thank you for the glowing recommendation! I just put the audio book on hold since I feel a bit overwhelmed with everything we're trying to read right now...perfect for the car.

dbmamaz Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Picked it up from the library yesterday and read the first chapter to my 9 yo (ok, made him read a few lines too lol) and he LOVED it! thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggieamy Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 DD listened to that as an audiobook and liked it. I didn't get to listen and now I feel like I missed out. Bummer. I've got a book to recommend back - We're reading Carry on, Mr. Bowditch right now and it's fantastic. Who'd have thought a little girl would be so interested in nautical navigation?!?!
