This series is a brilliant addition to any book case and is definitely one I would recommend for a classroom library as it is great for all students as it will encourage thought provoking conversations between peers and their families. * ReadPlus *
With its bright coloured panels and relatable characters, this series will appeal to fans of The Babysitters Club and Raina Telgemeier. Act, in particular, is a good book for generating discussion about protest movements, leadership and elections * Reading Time *
