Stolen Children af Peg Kehret

This book is thrilling and suspenseful. It is intriguing to both kids and adults. Peg Kehret does a great job of captivating the audience and making you feel all of the emotions that Amy goes through while trying to protect herself and Kendra from their kidnappers. Great story and a wonderfully talented author.

Small Steps: The Year I Got Polio (Anniversary… af Peg Kehret

Emotional, sad, sweet, hopeful book.
I'm an emotional personal, so unsurprisingly this made me tear up several times. It is so terrible but interesting to read about what she went through.
