Do you have a friend or friends who are just a perfect fit for you?
You may have a friend who:
- is going through something similar to what you are going through
- is someone who can understand and be there for you
- may be different in some way, but it's okay with you
- you may be able to help
- is fun and easy to talk to about anything
Then you will enjoy The Magical Imperfect by Chris Baron. The Magical Imperfect is in the genre called historical fiction. You may notice some familiar places in this book, as it takes place in the Bay Area. I might also call it friendship fiction.
My name is Ms. Ila and I am a big fan of reading middle grade fiction. Hope you enjoyed Coo last month! Here is my choice for this month!
Fun Activities for Kids Who Can't Play Outside
Your parents may restrict certain activities because they may cause flare-ups, but you can find an activity that you may enjoy like Malia did with her singing. Look at 4kids.org on our Kids Games page and use "Cool Spots" to search for activities. All of the following sites are okay with 4kids.org!
