I loved this MG book sooooo much! 😻 This is such a beautiful and well done book. Hats off to Sherri Winston for her work on this book.
Brianna Justice is such an amazing heroine. I loved reading about her and her exploits in this book. She's a fifth grader with big dreams and after her role model visits her school, she comes up with a plan to reach her goals, and this starts with her winning the class election.
Some changes in the school result in the class election becoming a school election. A devious new girl joins the student body and makes it her mission to beat Brianna in the election.
This book revolves around so many themes, the most important being friendship and morality. The inclusion of politics as the driving plot point is a genius stroke by the author. It's a great way to introduce middle graders to serious issues and she did it using characters and language that they'll relate well with.
Lots of trivia was included in this book, and I love that this can double as an history book of sorts for young American kids without being too serious.
Finance and entrepreneurship for young kids also played a part in this book, as we see Brianna and her friends saving towards their future goals. I love love love that!
This was such a fun read and I definitely recommend it.
