I'd *love* an arc of "Front Desk" by Kelly Yang! I'm desperately looking for middle-grade novels with protagonists of color who are low-income and *not* stereotyped, because such stories are rarer than hen's teeth.

If I may comment twice, I'm

If I may comment twice, I'm also jumping-down-excited about "The Journey of Little Charlie" by Christopher Paul Curtis. Mr. Curtis is one of few authors who writes authentically about characters who are struggling economically and socially, always with great detail and richness. A new book by him coming out is even more reason to breathlessly wait for Spring!
