Forever Birchwood by Danielle Daniel

This was such a tender and powerful and nostalgic story of a group of girls, on the cusp of turning 13 and all the changes that brings, trying to save their town's trees and a historic site they discover. I really loved the relationships between Wolf and her friends, Hari, her grandma Houle, even her mother. There was an aching complexity here. I also love that the town librarian was a badass in disguise and helped them gather the information they needed AND even joined in their secret operation takedown! Will be recommending this to middle grade readers in search of a summer read of friendship, mystery, and fighting injustice.
