COMMUNITY REVIEWS

The Bridge Home submitted by unknown on May 8, 2019, 7:50pm Fictional, but poignant because it touches on so many obviously true issues that too many children must face in India today. It has some surprisingly sad events. I am interested in reading additional stories from this author.

The Global Read Aloud submitted by flemingj on June 14, 2019, 5:05pm This title is part of The Global Read Aloud this fall. Fantastic group of kids that make their own family while dealing with poverty, homelessness, and disability. I hope to read this with many of my middle school students in the fall.

The Bridge Home submitted by SBNB on June 12, 2022, 1:46pm As an adult, I enjoyed reading this book, and I'm looking forward to recommending it to my kids when they get a bit older.
