The Verdigris Pawn
Alysa WishingradVerdigris Pawn is one of the most endearing middle grade fantasies I've read in a long time. Paperback is out next month and can't give enough reasons to grab one but here are a few: great and full cast of characters, engrossing plot, teachable moments, and lots of fun.

Learning to Fall
Sally EngelfriedCan't recommend @SalllyE's LEARNING TO FALL highly enough. Skateboarding provides a great metaphor for learning to get back up when life's challenges pull you down. It's got a great cast, fantastic details about a sport I knew nothing about, and a story that is sure to resonate.
