My favorite middle grade books* read (not necessarily published) in 2008.
Some of these are all about the writing.
Some of them are all about the story.
And some of them are all about both.
Alvin Ho Allergic to Girls, School and Other Scary Thingsby Lenore Look
The Broken Bike Boy and the Queen of 33rd Streetby Sharon Flake
Chainsby Laurie Halse Anderson
The Goose Girlby Shannon Hale
Jessie's Mountainby Kerry Madden
Moxy Maxwell Does Not Love Writing Thank-You Notesby Peggy Gifford
There's a Boy in the Girls' Bathroomby Louis Sachar
The Underneathby Kathi Appelt
*I actually consider Chains to be YA, but I think the rest of the world considers it middle gradish? I'd rather see it win the Printz than the Newbery. But that's just me.

Thanks!
I've added these to my hold list at the library.
Can't wait to pick them up.
