I enjoyed reading Artie and The Wolf Moon. I saw it on my library's Libby account and ended up reading it with my reading buddy. I did not do my due-diligence and research the book beforehand, which I regret. Artie has a girl-girl kiss, which may have been pushing it for my fourth-grade buddy, as I don't know her background. The reading level was good for my student, however. The kiss isn't overly sexual, and there isn't really any other instance of contact in the book.

The illustrations are lovely.
