Heart-warming! 4.5 stars from me ⭐️
I’d encourage you to look for the audio version! I’m a big fan of Joniece Abbott-Pratt, the narrator of this audiobook. What a beautiful voice and manner of storytelling! The main character of the story is endearing. Madalyn has a sweet heart. The writing is very detailed, vivid and gentle. Good work!
I agree with the top-voted review on the three issues that:
1) The difficult conversation with a certain character is postponed to the very end of the book
2) There is some messaging that “you need to be the bigger person” even when someone else is acting rude, racist, wrongly, etc.
3) It’s confusing and unknown which age the main character has because her school grade is close to 13 but the narration sounds like it is for a younger child.
Overall, a very good reading & listening experience! Madalyn is such a goody two shoes and her relationship with her family is pure and sweet. I’m definitely rooting for her! She is very likeable and memorable. Her family’s wisdom and her perspective are very precious and inspiring to me.
