MMGM for June 21, 2021

Summertime is the perfect time to dive into some fantastic Middle Grade reviews and features. Click on the little boy to reach your favorite.

At ALWAYS in the MIDDLE I’m finally reviewing WINK by Rob Harrell, the engaging story of a kid with cancer.

Natalie Aguirre at Literary Rambles is interviewing debut author Mike Thayer with a GIVEAWAY of his MG fantasy The Double Life of Danny Day.

Sue Heavenrich is over at Sally’s Bookshel with a review of Homer on the Case, by Henry Cole.

Patricia Tilton at Children’s Books Heal reviews The Last Fallen Star: A Gifted Clans Novel by Graci Kim and Presented by Rick Riordan, a new Korean fantasy/mythological series.

Alex Baugh at Randomly Reading is back with a review of a graphic novel called Kyle’s Little Sister by BonHyung Jeong.

Maria Antonia at OF BOOKS, PHOTOGRAPHY, AND TEA features MISSING MIKE by Shari Green.

Stephanie Robinson at Fairday’s Blog joins us again this week and is featuring Ida and the Unfinished City by Carolyn Cohagan.

Rosi Hollinbeck reviews SIX FEET BELOW ZERO by Ena Jones. Rosi also shares 3 links for her writer friends.

Karen Yingling at Ms. Yingling Reads has great reviews all week and today for MMGM she features … THE DOUBLE LIFE OF DANNY DAY; and THE SHELTER AND THE FENCE.

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.
