One Crazy Summer by Rita Williams-Garcia
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another great historical fiction to add to your list!  This book is a bit of a challenge for most 4th graders due to some of the themes and lack of background knowledge in reference to the historical references.  I loved the relationship between the sisters and their unique personalities.  Their relationship with Cecile, their poet mother, is definitely talk worthy.  My middle school friends should definitely give this book a try.
