I love readathons! Probably won‘t make it to 25 but it will be fun to make some progress on my current reads! Crenshaw is this month‘s middle grade pick for #diversebooksclub and I need to start #theodysseybuddyread 📚

heikemarie My kids loved Crenshaw! It was particularly great for a few kids in upper middle who are way below reading level. It was still high interest to them. 6y
Andrew65 Welcome aboard, the taking part is more important than getting to 25 hours. 😊 I loved 6y

Pickpick

#dbc middlegrade pick for the September topic of race.
I need to read more diversely so joining in on the reading of the diverse picks is wonderful. This book was bittersweet. I hated reading about the racial oppression but it happened and how the black community in the town looked after their own was uplighting and lovely, even though they didnt deserve the way they were all treated. Great middle grade discussion book! 4 stars.
