New Kid

Every choice here is excellent. The humor is zingy and current, the teen voices are accurate, the microagressions and depictions of well meaning and much-less-well-meaning teachers are true and deep, the family and friend relationships live and breathe. Wow. So good. The chapter titles all as puns/jokes on movies and books was particularly delightful. So much for kids, teens, and adults to unpack and discuss. This should be cleaning up come award season!
