Finished the book
The description on the book jacket and on Amazon does not do this book justice. It should have said something about being a coming-of-age story for a middle school girl. The story tells of Ellie and her transition to middle school. It tells of Ellie's grandfather, Melvin's, struggle with an ethical issue regarding a scientific discovery. Holm's has created characters the reader cares about. This is the first Oregon Readers' Choice Award nominee that I have read.
