I might be in my thirties, but sometimes an adorable chapter book is still all I need to feel better. I've loved Sarah Kapit's previous middlegrades, so while I don't read a lot of chapter books, I immediately knew I wanted to read this one! It's about Rachel, who's Jewish and has ADHD, and who HATES having to follow rules that don't make sense to her. This story is adorable and hilarious in equal measures, and I would love to read the second installment as well!

Move over Amber Brown, Judy Moody, & Jasmine Toguchi -- Rachel Friedman is in the house! Rachel is fun and fiesty and believes in what is fair and right, even if it does involve breaking the rules sometimes. Early elementary students will relate to her frustrations and challenges. This is the start of a great new illustrated chapter book series. Highly recommended for grades 1 & up.
