I have just finished reading Number the Stars by Lois Lowry. It is a children’s book about WWII in Denmark and it was pretty incredible. You daughter might like this, Dan. It is very sensitively written about bravery and friendship.
Those were very popular books! A lot of people got obsessed with both of them – that’s why they made a whole series out of the books and then made a series out of the movies! And spawned a million copycats.

Most recently? I stayed up way too late finishing Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book, and Sharon Creech’s Walk Two Moons. (Lots of MG/YA just now 🙂 )
