Reading Wildly: Reader's Choice

We kicked off a new year of Reading Wildly this week with our Reader's Choice book discussion. I like to keep things low key for our first meeting of the year, but it's still great to get together and talk about books! Here's what we read:

• Al Capone Does My Shirts (and sequels) by Gennifer Choldenko
• Alvin Ho: Allergic to Girls, School, and Other Scary Things by Lenore Look
• Baby's in Black by Arne Bellstorf
• Cinnamon Moon by Tess Hilmo
• Crow Smarts by Pamela S. Turner
• Easy to Love, Difficult to Discipline by Becky Bailey (a book from our Parents' Shelves!)
• Lucky Broken Girl by Ruth Behar (out in April)
• The Mighty Odds by Amy Ignatow
• My Brother Loved Snowflakes by Mary Bahr
• The Passion of Dolssa by Julie Berry
• The Thing About Leftovers by C.C. Payne
• The Thousandth Floor by Katharine McGee

Next month, we're back into our genres and topics and our topic for February is #OwnVoices. I've asked everyone to read Kayla Whaley's excellent post #OwnVoices: Why We Need Diverse Authors in Children’s Literature to help with our discussion of these titles. 

What #OwnVoices titles would you recommend??
