The Misadventures of the Family Fletcher by Dana Alison Levy

The Misadventures of the Family Fletcher by Dana Alison Levy is a RICBA nominee for 2017. This is a story of a family of all boys, four kids and two dads. They are a lively, loving family and I enjoyed reading about their school year. The boys all have various problems they are dealing with; new school, tough assignment, imaginary friends. I loved the family traditions the family Fletcher have, like making a hockey rink in the back yard when it's cold enough and their big annual Halloween party. Although things often fall apart a bit, like the ice rink collapses, or the party gets rained out, they find a way together to make everything better. It is a touching story about what it is like to be part of a family.

Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix

Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix makes a great read for anybody who likes science fiction.  One of the main characters, who is named Jonah always wanted to find his birth parents. But soon he starts getting strange letters. Then his best friend, Chip starts getting letters too and it turns out he is adopted as well.  When they get close to the truth they find out more than they should have known.  I highly recommend this book because I really enjoy a book that pulls me in, I really hope it pulls you in too.
