This book is giving me serious Judy Blume vibes in all the best ways!
I love books written in a diary format! Love, Maggie is the cutest story about an 8 year old girl and a neat look into her year with her diary entries. Maggie is outgoing, funny and so lovable and I really enjoyed her very honest and relatable perspective as a 3rd grader. It brought back so many memories and reminded me of this time when we were still learning about friendships, social situations and how every family is unique in their own ways.
It’s such a great book for elementary aged kids and shows how they can have experiences and use self reflection to grow and learn, just like Maggie does.
This chapter book not only would be a great read aloud as a parent or teacher but would be such a helpful text for writing assignments and journaling. It also leads itself to so many valuable discussions such as overcoming nerves, different family structures and being a good friend. We enjoyed this one and I think it would be a fun addition to any home or classroom library.
