Video review: ‘The Campaign,’ by Leila Sales
In my latest Book-Talk video : Seventh-grader Maddie Polansky is concerned that the woman running unopposed for mayor plans to eliminate funding for the arts in her city’s public schools. So Maddie persuades her babysitter, Janet, to enter the race for mayor. This book offers a good overview for young readers, in how elections work — but adults may wish to point out differences in the way that their own local schools are funded.
I received a digital copy of this book through NetGalley
