Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Wednesday Wilson was such a cute read! I am excited to share this book with my kids.

This is part 2 of the middle-grade chapter book. I think it’s great and relatable for middle-grade readers who now are going back to school after the summer break and have to navigate the school and its dynamic again.

This instalment of Wednesday Wilson is a great addition to her narrative. It explores her second venture into business, the expansion of her friend group, and navigating school rules in the name of business. Bree continues her engaging storytelling and inclusivity with her array of diverse characters that are unique and multifaceted. This book series is a great read for all readers young and old alike. I hope Bree continues to bring readers along on more stories from Wednesday and her many attempts at business!

This is a great children's book, a little higher reading level than expected but otherwise a good story with cute illustrations. Thank you so much for this ARC opportunity and I look forward to reading this with the kiddos

3.5⭐️ rounded up simply in comparison to the others in the series. I am thankful to have gotten the eARC for free from Netgalley and Kids Can Press so I can leave my voluntary and honest review.

This is the second installment of the Wednesday Wilson books and it is the strongest of the 3. It is a bit more appropriate for the reading level although still a bit older than the target audience. The definitions were a bit more on point as well.

One issue of sorts is that it’s being marketed to a global audience which may be why there is a disconnect as many reviewers are in the USA. For instance Dodge Ball is actually banned in many states in the US but not all. Even where it’s not banned at the state level, many districts have banned it. It’s been replaced with similar games that correct the bullying aspect. However from my understanding and research it still is played in many Canadian schools which is where the books are written.

So does it have universal appeal in mirroring a typical 3rd grader? Not at all . But it may on a more local level.

My rating system for Middle Grade and children’s books

⭐️ Significant problems and would never recommend to the audience.
⭐️⭐️ Had a lot of trouble, prose issues, really not my cup of tea but may have some appeal.
⭐️⭐️⭐️ an ok book which I wouldn’t go out of my way to recommend but there was nothing significantly wrong with it.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Really enjoyed it! Would recommend to others
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding! Would recommend highly, especially to school programs.

Thanks so much to Netgalley and the publisher for the arc of this one in exchange for an honest review!

I thought this was a cute book. The story was decent and the pictures were cute. I did feel a bit bored though so I’m not sure this will engage children as much as some other books.

This is not a bad book but also I’m not sure if it’ll be super engaging for children. I felt the same way about all of these in this series.
