This is an extremely engaging tale told in first-person by the youngest in a family of all boys. May Amelia lives in the Pacific Northwest of 1899, a rural community of farmers, loggers, and fishers. She's a bit of an impulsive and independent spirit of a girl who gets into issues, a lot. I can see why this would have been given a Newbery Honor award, it's good enough for the main Newbery Medal in my estimation. There's an author's note at the end that took me by surprise, a pleasant one, and endeared the character to me all the more. Definitely recommended.… (mais)
While I’ll admit it doesn’t have the same charm as the author’s Babymouse series, this is still a solid choice for early graphic novel readers.

-This is a great, fun book about a soccer team and all the coach wants to do is win. Once they are winning the team realizes that there are things that are more important than winning.
