Jaqueline Kelly should feel very accomplished in this life. Besides being a doctor and a lawyer, her debut novel won the Newbery Honor Medal in 2010, and I suspect The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate would have won the gold had the equally amazing and wonderful book When You Reach Me by Rebbeca Stead not come out in the same year. Either way, I am so glad I did not have to choose a gold medal
I think we got this on your recommendation, and Ivy adored it -- thanks again!
So good to know a real kid has read it an enjoyed it!
T and I both loved this one - we read it last year (when she was 6) I know much of it went over her head, but it sparked a lot of good discussion for us. I can't wait for her to read it again when she is a little older and will get even more out of it.
Excellent! I hope your daughter does return to this book in a few years! I never know what to read out loud and what to set aside for later. It's so hard for me to guess what my kids will pick up on their own later on!
