Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for the r-ARC of this middle grade novel.

This is the third book in Karen Kingsbury’s “Baxter Family” series. These books are quick reads that follow the five Baxter children. The series continues to be a good one for families seeking books where the characters’ faith is important to them. I only wished this book had spent more time with Erin and Luke as this one focuses primarily on the older three girls.

I love the Baxter family.  I have read all the books in the series.  These children's books are the best also.  We see all the Baxter children when they are young and experiencing things that kids still experience today.  Being the new kid in school, making friends, deciding what they want to be when they grown up and being somewhat of a menace.  But we love how the parents help their children navigate through these childhood difficulties through Biblical principles.  We see our favorite characters of Ashley, Luke, Kari, Brooke and Erin were as children and if you have read the series how they became the adults we love so much.
This would be a great book for parents to read to their children at bedtime and discuss how they would handle these everyday problems. I hope there are many more of these books because we need them now more than ever.
