Review: Redwood and Ponytail

Redwood and Ponytail by K.A. Holt
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I felt like it read more like Tam and Kate were in high school instead of middle school, but other than that I think it was incredibly well done. Holt has an art for getting to the heart of things. The struggles of figuring out who you are and who you love are ones that kids gay and straight alike will identify with.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Really cool book! I never knew that an artist went to the moon. I love that this shows kids you don't have to be just one thing. You can have multiple passions. The illustrations are GORGEOUS!
