Fearless Fourteen by Janet Evanovich

Another great Stephanie Plum adventure. This edition had all the “usual” suspects in it to make up a great story – Lulu, Ranger, Morelli…It doesn’t get any better than this. A great read for any age!

It is engaging as a mystery, but also has some weird elements as the main character seriously pursues the task of teaching his dog to talk.

Factory Girl by Barbara Greenwood

It is an informative narrative of child labor in the U.S. during the dearly 1900s as told through the eyes of 12-year-old Emily Watson. Emily works in the garment industry. Heart wrenching archival photos of child workers and slums are provided. Factual accounts about the events to reform child labor and the people who succeeded in this reform are included. I purchased this book for my grandchildrens’ library.

The Game of My Life by Jason McElwain

It’s an inspirational and insightful book about a young man whose basketball exploits brought inspiration on a journey from a small western new York town through the Internet and eventually inspiring millions of people with ties to autism! But unlike a typical sports book, Jason McElwain’s basketball exploits are the subtext for the challenges and triumphs of a young man’s life.
