A review by miszjeanie
The Dollar Kids by Jennifer Richard Jacobson, Ryan Andrews

4.0

Thanks to Candlewick Press for an e-ARC of this novel. I enjoyed this unique book about a family who buys a run down house in a former mill town for a DOLLAR! Despite being a over a whopping 400 pages long, this story is immersive and perfectly paced. There's always action, which is something that can be lacking for me in very long books.

I really liked all the characters and especially the way this book handles a child's grief and guilt about the death of his friend. Would definitely recommend this one!
