Emma Hamilton, My Book Corner’s Middle Grade Specialist, selects her Best Book of 2017…
A Story Like the Wind by Gill Lewis, illustrated by Jo Weaver.
Great things come in small packages. Gill Lewis’s A Story Like the Wind is easy to read in one sitting but will stay with you for months.
The compelling topic of a refugee’s journey mingled with the power of music and the beautiful illustrations are what make this such a memorable story and my pick for 2017.
