Book of Interest: Ways to Make Sunshine

It's Friday and a whole new month and I can't wait to find new books. For instance here is a middle grade book, Ways to Make Sunshine that I would like to read. It seems like it'll be a cute and fun read. And not to mention the cover is absolutely adorable. I love that there is such a huge variety of middle grade books available and it gives readers a chance to read so many interesting stories.

For my middle grade fans, does Ways to Make Sunshine seem like a book you would want to read?

Book: Ways to Make Sunshine (A Ryan Hart Novel book #1) by Renée Watson with illustrations by Nina Mata

Description:

From Newbery Honor and Coretta Scott King Author Award winner Renée Watson comes the first book in a young middle grade series about Ryan Hart, a girl who is pure spirit, kindness, and sunshine.

Ryan Hart has a lot on her mind--school, self-image, and especially family. Her dad finally has a new job, but money is tight. That means some changes, like selling their second car and moving into a new (old) house. But Ryan is a girl who knows how to make sunshine out of setbacks. As her brother says when he raps about her, she's got the talent that matters most: it's a talent that can't be seen, she's nice, not mean!

Ryan is all about trying to see the best in people, to be a good daughter, a good sister, a good friend. But even if her life isn't everything she would wish for, when her big brother is infuriating, her parents don't quite understand, and the unexpected happens, she always finds a way forward, with grace and wit. And plenty of sunshine.

Acclaimed author Renée Watson writes her own version of Ramona Quimby, one starring a Black girl and her family, in this start to a charming new series.
