Quick Review:

I wish I had read the first book in this series, because this book was awesome! Who doesn't love a good book about kids getting into a lemonade war? Especially a childhood courtroom! Sure, it sounds dull but it was an amazing premise! It's fun, fast paced and easy to read. It's a great middle grade read that adults can enjoy too!

Read this aloud to my kids. They were very excited to see what happened next after The Lemonade War. They really enjoyed this one too.

My youngest was required to read this 2 chapters a day for his reading class in school. I read it each day after him to help with comprehension. It's a good story with a good lesson for kids!

Uh, not the best book I've ever read, but I'm a character in the story (Alyssa)! I appreciate that!

Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This is a good lighthearted book! It’s the second book in a series, and I like how
things didn’t go as planned. The outcome that we wanted didn’t happen!
I like how Jessie set up everything, and there was a tiny bit of mystery. Did Scott really do it? If so, did he really use it to get the new game box? Will Jessie and Evan get back at him? Evan and Scott also have character development so that’s a plus!

Middle-reader book. You need to read The Lemonade War first. Both books are great read aloud books for your kids or great first novels for your middle readers.

The second in the series, this follows the same two kids and their friends on their adventures. A fun read, following the same pattern as the first one in the series. It reminded me of the good parts of childhood back in the day when kids spent time outside and parents weren't helicoptering over their kids.
