New Old Shoes by Charlotte Blessing

New Old Shoes by Charlotte Blessing


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is the fascinating story of how a new pair of shoes becomes an old pair of shoes for one person, but a brand new pair of shoes for someone in another country. It is so inspirational. While it deals with a somewhat serious topic, it reads smoothly and is beautifully illustrated. Kids and adults will love this title. They might even be inspired to hold their own shoe drive for Soles4Souls. I know I am!

The True Gift: A Christmas Story by Patricia MacLachlan


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
What a beautiful Christmas story about the meaning of giving a gift! What I really liked about this story is how the children figure it all out themselves. Quick, easy read. Perfect for the whole family!

Middle School Is Worse Than Meatloaf by Jennifer Holm

What a great book! Ginny's entire year is "told through stuff." The reader gets to find out all about Ginny's first year in middle school by reading her emails, text messages, report cards, bank account statements and more. This is a visually stimulating and exciting version of a diary. Suggest this book to girl fans of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series.
