Finding Junie Kim, by Ellen Oh

5.0

This is such a powerful, important, emotionally intelligent book that beautifully weaves together the trauma of war, hate crime, bullying, depression, friendship tiffs, and lack of cell phone without diminishing or minimizing any of them--in a tender way that I think most older elementary and middle schoolers will find relatable and much-needed.

Finding Junie Kim has so much wisdom to share, and is a beautiful starting point for important conversations about compassion toward yourself and others.
