Today’s featured review comes from Round 2 Elementary/Middle Grade Spec Fic judge Mark Buxton, a retired teacher in Ohio who blogs at Say What? One of the fun things about his blog reviews is that he posts, in part, in the voices of book characters themselves. He also, of course, adds his own comments. Regarding finalist title When the Sea Turned to Silver by Grace Lin, he said:
“Readers can expect an Asian setting with characters able to transform into amazing creatures and immortal beings.”
