Here is a book trailer of the book Moon over Manifest.
Twelve-year-old Abilene Tucker is the daughter of a drifter who, in the summer of 1936, sends her to stay with an old friend in Manifest, Kansas, where he grew up, and where she hopes to find out some things about his past.

I am so excited about the two books I have just READ!  Twisted and My Brother Sam is Dead.  Both were amazing books with some situations that would be considered controversial.  I found both books to be true to life.  The experiences were of a sound nature and fitting for the right audience.


Twisted written by Laurie Halse Anderson
My Brother Sam is Dead written by James Collier and Christopher Collier
