Happy early Valentine’s Day! Love is in the air for this week’s Marvelous Middle Grade Monday. I have a review of COGHEART by Peter Bunzl. Click on the heart to reach my post and do the same for each of the features and reviews below.
June McCrary Jacobs at ‘Reading, Writing, & Stitch-Metic’ features  a short story collection, Indian Shoes, written by Author Cynthia Leitich Smith, illustrated by Jim Madsen.
Michelle Mason at Musings of a Young Adult Writer stops by again with a review of THE REVENGE OF MAGIC by James Riley.
Welcome to Author Stephanie Robinson at Fairday’s Blog. She will be posting a once a month MG book review. First out of the gate is a feature on the book MUSIC BOXES by Tonja Drecker.
Patricia Tilton at Children’s Books Heal reviews Finding Langston, a coming of age novel by Lesa Cline-Ransome.
Dorine White at The Write Path has Foiled by Carey Fessler. There is also an Author Interview and Giveaway!
Maria Antonia at Of Books, Photography, and Tea reviews One-Third Nerd by Gennifer Choldenko.

Beth Mitchell at Imaginary Friends reviews a classic—The Giver by Lois Lowry.

Susan Uhlig introduces us to THE TURNING, a magical book about selkies. 
Karen Yingling at Ms. Yingling Reads has another informative MMGM post. Be sure to check out today’s feature and all of her reviews the past week.
If you would like to join in the MMGM fun and get your own spot in the parade, all you have to do is blog about a middle grade book you love on a Monday (contests, author interviews and whatnot also count–but are most definitely not required) and email me the title of the book you’re featuring and a link to your blog at gpcolo (at) gmail (dot) com
(Make sure you put MMGM or Marvelous Middle Grade Monday in the subject line so it gets sorted accurately–and please don’t forget to say what book you’re featuring)
You MUST email me your link by Sunday evening (11 PM Eastern Time) in order to be included in the list of links for the coming Monday.
Thanks for spreading the middle grade love and for being a part of this awesome tradition begun by Shannon Messenger and carried on here at ALWAYS in the MIDDLE! (CLICK HERE FOR PAST MMGM POSTS)
*Please note: these posts are not a reflection of my own opinions on the books featured. Each blogger is responsible for their own MMGM content and I do not pre-screen reviews ahead of time, nor do I control what books they choose. I simply assemble the list based on the links that are emailed to me.
