Fish In A Tree by Lynda Mullany Hunt is a middle grade realistic fiction novel about a girl named Ally who has trouble reading and writing. Thankfully, she ends up with the right teacher to help her realize her potential.

This is a beautiful story about a child who struggles with a learning disability and has a positive, growth mindset message. It’s a must-read for teachers, parents, and students alike!
