Readers are the HEART and SOUL of a school.
This is a place where Nebbie students can post reviews about Newbery Award and Newbery Honor books they've read.
How to Write a Review
Pick up a Newbery Review form from Ms. Goodnight-Click in the library or print one off from the library's wiki page (click on the yellow jacket below.) Make sure the book you are reviewing is a Newbery Medal or Honor Award book. Your review must include the title, the author's name, a short summary, your thoughts about the book, and a star rating (1 star = poor to 4 stars = great). Give the review to Ms. Goodnight-Click in the library for posting.

Soonie's mother teaches her to sew. Soonie puts secret messages into her things she sews. Each generation passes on the belief.
It was not very good. I didn't like how it was written. It was boring to me.

Eeeeep! So sorry I bored you, Emily. Don't tell my daughter, Toshi -- "Boring" is her favorite word. But she likes Show Way because she's in it! :) -Jacqueline Woodson
