Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

Emma's Question
Emma's grandmother is a wonderful person. She babysits for Emma after school and takes her out for a bagel on wednesdays. But grandmother has had to go to the hospital for several days, and Emma is very worried that something must be terribly wrong. In fact, she has a question that is too scary to ask. This is a first book by Minnesotan Catherine Urdahl, and is illustrated by Janine Dawson. This is a nice story for parents to share with young children.
