That's right, cupcakes, the 3rd Annual March MG Madness begins today! I'm SO excited for this month long celebration of middle-grade to start and I hope you are too. The first and second March MG Madness Events were awesome awesome awesome, and I think this year will be even BETTER.

    My all time favorite MG book is The Sorcerers Stone, it is the book/series that rekindled my interest in reading and holds special memories for me.

    This is so exciting, Aeicha. I know where I'll be spending most of March: here at Word Spelunker.

    Yay! I can't wait to fill my TBR with some MG goodness! I have quite a few favorites but Sorcerer's Stone, Breadcrumbs by Ann Ursu, and Chasing Redbird by Sharon Creech are at the top of the list.

    I really love The Cavendish Home for Boys and Girls. And the Harry Potter books (are those middle grade? I think the first few are at least), and also A Series of Unfortunate Events. And a bunch more! Basically I am super excited for this bloggy event-thing, because MG doesn't get enough recognition, I think :)

    I don't know about all-time favorite, there are just too many that I love.
    That being said, one of my current favorite middle grade series is The Ascendance trilogy by Jennifer Nielsen. I just discovered it earlier this year and fell in love with her writing, the world, and the characters.

Hey there cupcake! You look lovely today and I can tell you're thinking very smarticle thinky thoughts....so go ahead and post 'em!

After much thought and only recently being introduced to blog awards and blogger tagging, I'm going to have to declare this an award/tag free blog. I'm honored, humbled, and so very grateful for simply being considered for an award, but I simply do not have the time to return the favor. If I could, I'd award y'all with dozens of yummy cupcakes ;) Thanks for understanding.
