Reseñas

This is an extremely engaging tale told in first-person by the youngest in a family of all boys. May Amelia lives in the Pacific Northwest of 1899, a rural community of farmers, loggers, and fishers. She's a bit of an impulsive and independent spirit of a girl who gets into issues, a lot. I can see why this would have been given a Newbery Honor award, it's good enough for the main Newbery Medal in my estimation. There's an author's note at the end that took me by surprise, a pleasant one, and endeared the character to me all the more. Definitely recommended.… (más)

While I’ll admit it doesn’t have the same charm as the author’s Babymouse series, this is still a solid choice for early graphic novel readers.

Summary
Bell is an 11 year old boy living on Mars. His American Settlement on Mars is the only world he has ever known. He really loves his life there with other people in the American Settlement and with his cat! He knows there are other settlements on Mars, but they do not socialize with one another.
One day there is an issue in the American settlement. Many of the adults are getting sick. What will Bell and the other children in the American Settlement do? Will they follow the rules about not contacting the other counties or will they find a way to help the adults before the supplies from Earth arrives?

Review
I really enjoyed this middle grade sci-fi book! It was a very realistic story in a very unrealistic world. I love a book that has the entire world transformed.
It is very student language friendly, but engaging. It was on the surface on topics of isolation and sickness and what to do in challenging situations. Many of my students who have been reading it really like it!
