The Truth of Me by Patricia MacLachlanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is another wonderful book for younger readers, and I am so glad that I read it! The Truth of Me reminded me a bit of The Year of Billy Miller in that I think both have a certain quietness about them and will make wonderful read alouds, especially for second grade. This book has a bit of action and some intense scenes, but everything is written in such a gentle, believable way. My favorite part of the story is the characters - not perfect but very realistic. I've already begun suggesting this one to readers at my school. Fantastic book!
