On Wednesdays, I vow to inconsistently list some good books I’ve recently read.

Blue Mountain by Martine Leavitt is a delightful, heart-warming middle grade adventure. I have to confess that I’m usually not a fan of novels with animals as characters, but this story is the exception to the rule for me. It’s a well-told story of strength and survival, leadership and sacrifice. The characters are distinct and lovable. Readers of all ages will enjoy this story. If you’re looking for a sweet adventure or a good read-aloud–
Go forth and find this book.
