A heartfelt, sweet, social justice-themed ode to blended and unconventional families--perfect for fans of Rita Williams-Garcia, Lisa Graff, and Sara Pennypacker. This middle grade novel is an excellent choice for tween readers in grades 5 to 6, especially during homeschooling. It's a fun way to keep your child entertained and engaged while not in the classroom.
In this sequel to Two Naomis, now that Naomi Marie's mom and Naomi E.'s dad are married, the girls have learned to do a lot of things together, like All-Family Sunday dinners, sixth-grade homework, navigating the subway system by themselves, and visiting their favorite bakeries. Until sixth grade in a new school presents a whole new set of surprises and challenges.
Trusting her gut has worked for Naomi E. all her life, and she figures that it will be an asset to her role as a Peer Mediator--until she realizes how much of the job requires the Art of Compromise, which she's only just starting to get used to at home.
Naomi Marie is excited about making new friends--but she wants to keep old ones too. And when she sees that some in the school community have a hard time with the realities of diversity in action, she wonders if the new members of her family can see those realities as well.
As the girls deal with the ups and downs of middle school and the mysteries of family dynamics, they learn that even when life and school try to drive you apart, it's ultimately easier to face everything together.
Can two very different Naomis learn to see the world through each other's eyes and become a family for real?
- Dual POV: Told from the perspectives of both Naomi Marie and Naomi E. as they navigate their new school, new family, and new friendship.
- Navigating Change: A heartfelt story about the ups and downs of middle school, learning to compromise, and figuring out who you are in a brand-new life.
- Diversity and Inclusion: When Naomi Marie sees how their school community struggles with diversity in action, she has to find the courage to speak up and help her family understand.
- Books about Friendship: Perfect for readers who love stories about making new friends, keeping old ones, and the power of facing challenges together.
