Today’s featured review looks at Just Like Jackie by Lindsey Stoddard, a nominee in our Middle Grade Fiction category. Earlier this year, Round 1 judge Julie Williams reviewed it on her blog Reading by the Pond. Julie is a teacher librarian from Maine who works at a K-5 school, and she’s a Cybils returnee. About this book, she said:
Robinson has some anger issues. She lives with her grandfather and has no other family – she knows nothing about any of them – mom, dad, other grandparents. And now her grandfather is starting to forget things.
