MMGM (7/29/2019): Positively Izzy by Terri Libenson

Image
I'm back (a week late—sorry!) with a review of the graphic novel Positively Izzy  by Terri Libenson (a follow-up to Invisible Emmie , which I reviewed here ).           With her single mother at work every day, Izzy (one of two main characters of the book) finds herself constantly doing chores and being bossed around by her older sister, Danielle, who essentially runs the house when her mother is gone. Izzy finds solace in making up/acting out stories with her slightly younger sister, Ashley, and this passion prepares her for the upcoming school talent show, in which she is excited to perform a skit. However, when Izzy learns that she won't be able to perform in the show (I won't spoil why), she has to figure out, with Ashley's help, if there is any chance to fulfill her dream and act onstage.           The other main character of the book, Brianna (who readers will recognize as Emmie's best friend from  Invisible ...

MMGM and #IMWAYR: Truly Tyler by Terri Libenson

I hope everyone is doing well! I feel like the summer is racing by, but we still have a few solid months to get more reading done! Mixed in among this week's unpleasant current events was a nice bright spot: Derek Chauvin was sentenced to 22.5 years in prison , of which he must serve at least 15, for the death of George Floyd 1 year ago. I hope this is a small step forward in the fight against racism and police brutality.  On a completely different note, I've spent some time with my family this week trying to get caught up on some of Disney and Pixar's animated movies that are on Disney+. We watched Soul , which came out in December 2020, and although it was somewhat clumsily executed at times, the overall message was a really powerful one, and combined with the soundtrack, I ended up with tears literally rolling down my face. Somewhat surprisingly, though, I actually found myself liking Raya and the Last Dragon , which came out in March 2021, even more—I was expecting a so...

MMGM and #IMWAYR: When You Trap a Tiger by Tae Keller

If you're reading this on Monday from the United States, happy Memorial Day! I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend. Also, if you're interested, don't forget to check out my Thursday Thoughts post on the woes and joys of book-hoarding ! I also want to mention that I will be participating in my very first reading challenge, the 2021 Big Book Summer Challenge hosted by the wonderful #IMWAYR blogger Sue Jackson at Book by Book ! This post is already alarmingly long as is, so I'll just mention that you can head to this link to hear about the books I'm challenging myself to read this summer as part of this event! For today's review for MMGM and #IMWAYR, I am looking at this year's Newbery Medal winner:  When You Trap a Tiger  by Tae Keller.          I've seen a few reviews of this book recently, but honestly, I haven't seen much attention paid to When You Trap a Tiger , this year's recipient of the Newbery Medal and the Asian/Pacific American...
