It seems an interesting book, it would be worth the time reading about this topic, since many may ignore how to treat people who have different peculiarities from birth.

The correct education of family members is very important in these cases, love and understanding.

And in general, children are not usually bad, they only reflect what they learn at home, and that is why tolerance and respect for others must always be encouraged.

It seems to contain the right elements for children, and the storyline was perfectly constructed.

Sounds like an amazing book with a powerful message. I am already touched by Donny's story. Mary Grace sounds like an incredible character too. Great choice for BOTD.

Such a refreshing take on a children's book. Siblings taking California while staying with their grandparents... Well done for this review.

This sounds like a great book that could help children process their emotions better. I'm very happy to know that Jason is understood and shown the right path. Congrats on the BOTD! Thanks for the great review!

I liked the concept of every day will be an awesome day. I find it a good principle to teach children.

I read several accounts about The Grandma Gang Mysteries and am left with conflicted emotions, because while it raises important topics and teach kids valuable lessons, I wouldn't have bought it for my children. They are grown up and know the truth of reality, but kids must be happy and free of said knowledge.

This is how a children book should be: educative, interesting and full of morals.

My girlfriend has a special needs son, so this one hits close to home. It's a children's book, but I may check it out myself. Congrats to the author on BOTD.
