VRC read! I think this is a SUPER important book for middle grade students to read. I think this age group has a hard find understanding boundaries sometimes, and this is a good way for them to understand how that can go wrong.
The only thing that I didn’t totally enjoy with this one was some of the language. It sounded like someone from back in the 50’s or 60’s with phrases like “being fresh” used to mean being rude, which sounded completely outdated. I think if some of that could’ve been updated it would have felt more authentic.
