“Every middle schooler should be reading Barbara Dee. Her books are to today’s kids what Judy Blume’s books were to me at that age. She tackles such complex subjects with care. As one of my students once told me, ‘She just gets us.’”
—Amanda Jones, author of THAT LIBRARIAN, in The New York Times Book Review (“Put Kids’ Interests First, This Librarian Insists”)
“Dee showcases the power of compassion and understanding during the crucial middle school years of growth and change.”
—School Library Journal (Starred Review of UNSTUCK)
“Every middle school library needs a full set of Barbara Dee’s books. Her writing reminds me of Judy Blume.”
—John Schu, author of LOUDER THAN HUNGER, in PEOPLE Magazine
