Fish in a Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt
5.0
This is the sort of heartwarming "loser" overcomes the odds to prove everyone wrong story I don't normally care for. And yet, 5 stars. Because good characters are flawed and things aren't wrapped up in a completely neat bow by the end. By and large, the students felt authentic and the dialog flowed naturally. There weren't many easy answers and cheap outs. Story beats weren't over-mined for cheap sentimentality. Well done, Ms. Hunt.
