Book Review- Award Winner

Chapter book for nine to thirteen-year-olds, depending on their reading level. "A Year Down Yonder," by Richard Peck. An amusing fast read, and a New Newbery Medal winner. The book is about a teen named Mary Alice who spends a year living with her Grandma. But her Grandma is definitely no shrinking violet. Some of things she says are down right funny. The book is quite entertaining. I recommend it for summer reading.
