Book of the Week - Dear Sweet Pea by Julie Murphy
Official Book Website: http://www.imjuliemurphy.com/dear-sweet-pea
Listen to the First Chapter Here!: https://youtu.be/7VElMD_Qi6o
Dear Sweet Pea is a story about a girl named Patricia who goes by the nickname “Sweet Pea.” Her mother is the town therapist and her dad is an artist. They live in Valentine, Texas, and her parents have recently gotten divorced. In order to keep life as normal as possible for Sweet Pea, they buy two identical houses on the same street. Sweet Pea is friends with a boy named Oscar and “former best friends” with a girl named Keira. When Miss Flora Mae, the town advice columnist, goes on a vacation, Sweet Pea is given the secret task of caring for her home and making sure the advice column is published on time. Sweet Pea begins adding her own advice to the column, and the consequences are both funny and problematic!
Dear Sweet Pea is a great book for middle school readers that discusses friendship at all age levels. The book also considers how we communicate with others about our worries and how we share advice with others. Dear Sweet Pea is a Kirkus Review Best Book of 2019 for Middle Grade Readers, and can be found at all of our local bookstores. The book was just published in October of 2019 and has already been optioned by the Disney Channel for an original movie!
