Catching a Storyfish by Janice N. Harrington
5.0
I really enjoyed this one, especially for a novel in verse. This one had a really strong story that I think fit the format really well. This was also some of the most interesting and fun language usage I've ever read in a kids novel. I loved the family and the characterization and how Allegra was basically Latina Violet from Matilda.
I also had a small inward struggle about Keet being some sort of Mary Sue character since she's just the best storyteller ever and what kid actually has an amazing talent like that, but you know what? I think it worked really well in this and sometimes you just want to hear about people who can do things better.
