I love reading them, talking about them, and sharing them with kids, teachers, and parents. The best part about reading books for middle-graders is remembering what it was like to be a kid &#8211; to be\u00a0 nine-years-old and just figuring out school and friends and family &#8211; at the same time you&#8217;re beginning to examine exactly where you belong in the great big world.<\/p>\n<p>Some books just remind you of that time, while others transport you back there and make you relive all of it: the laughter, the pain, the excitement, and the confusion. Fellow 2017 debut author Susan Tan&#8217;s debut MG novel CILLA LEE-JENKINS:\u00a0 FUTURE AUTHOR EXTRAORDINAIRE does all of this and more.<\/p>\n<p>I read this book in one sitting and loved it so much, I shared my love for it all over social media &#8211; that is after I managed to wipe away the tears.<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"float: left; padding-right: 20px;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/29102822-cilla-lee-jenkins\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/d2arxad8u2l0g7.cloudfront.net\/books\/1458497632m\/29102822.jpg\" alt=\"Cilla Lee-Jenkins: Future Author Extraordinaire\" width=\"139\" height=\"209\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/29102822-cilla-lee-jenkins\">Cilla Lee-Jenkins: Future Author Extraordinaire<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/author\/show\/15026210.Susan_Tan\">Susan Tan<\/a><br \/>\nMy rating: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/review\/show\/1599768426\">5 of 5 stars<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cilla Lee-Jenkins is the best friend you wish you had.
