At ALWAYS in the MIDDLE I’m reviewing SCHOOL SQUAD by Eileen Moskowitz-Palma.

June McCrary Jacobs at Reading, Writing, & Stitch-Metic features a historical non-fiction alphabet book, Eight Hands Round: A Patchwork Alphabet.

Sue Heavenrich at Archimedes Notebook has a picture book for older kids (up to age 10): Life in a Frozen World: Wildlife of Antarctica, by Mary Batten.

COMPLETELY FULL BOOKSHELF shares some thoughts on First Light by Rebecca Stead.

Maria Antonia at OF BOOKS, PHOTOGRAPHY, AND TEA has Macy McMillan and the Rainbow Goddess by Shari Green

Rosi Hollinbeck has a review of FLYING OVER WATER by Shannon Hitchcock & N.H. Senzai. Rosi also shares three helpful links for her writing friends.

Karen Yingling at Ms. Yingling Reads always has a great MMGM review. Check it out along with her other features this past week including a look at THE SMARTEST KID IN THE UNIVERSE.

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.
