April is National Poetry Month & I’m celebrating by sharing my newest book review of THE TROUBLE WITH HEROES by New York Times Bestselling author Kate Messner. THE TROUBLE WITH HEROES is one of my top 2025 favorite reads!A moving & inspiring novel-in-verse that is a healing force for #kidlit readers who are experiencing or have experienced loss and grief. Sometimes it can be difficult to let go, and sometimes the sadness in our hearts can turn into anger & resentment. THE TROUBLE WITH HEROES is a story… a guide… that demonstrates how one grieving son finds a way to reconnect with his Dad after losing him. I loved this heartfelt, entertaining & inspiring story. From shining a light on the power of working through & overcoming grief, to some heart-stopping mountain climbing adventures, THE TROUBLE WITH HEROES is truly an inspirational middle-grade coming of age tale. On a personal note, Messner’s descriptive & captivating writing even inspired me to start hiking. Thanks for watching my book review of IT'S WATCHING.
