One of the newbery winners and, I think, deservedly so. Warning for those who like stories with a clear cut beginning middle and end. This book is more a slice of life, episodes in a group of teenagers lives in the 60’s, most interconnecting through the device of a lost necklace. Nostalgic for me, though earlier than my childhood. Not sure what today’s kids would make of it

I like the unique art, the multimedia scenes. I like the 3 dimensions. The artist di a great job playing with expectations. Would never want to read again.

Charlotte's Web is one of my all-time favorite books, so it is high praise for me to say V&J belongs in the same category. Here are some things they have in common:

1. Great read-aloud potential. The voice of the narrator is friendly, wry, and sometimes poetic. The story is not too long and never drags. There are great spot illustrations that help young listeners engage with the characters and setting.

2. The animals are kinda anthropomorphized, but retain essential animal qualities. Violet and Jobie watch TV and play games, but they don't eat with a knife and fork or wear clothes, you know? Charlotte was a spider who could read and write, but still caught flies and drank their blood. Zolian in particular was a Charlotte-like character -- a good friend and teacher who understands the ways of the world.

3. It's a wholesome story, but not saccharine. It's the kind of book that makes you want to snuggle up under a blanket and enjoy together. But it might make you choke up a little in the end.
