Happy Monday! Middle Grade Monday features Sunny Makes a Splash by Jennifer L. Holm and illustrated by Matthew Holm. Sunny is back in a fourth book! It's summer. She's hot and bored. All her friends are away doing something cool. She's stuck home and her mother expects her to babysit. Ugh! Her only bright spot is swimming at the swim club. At least she can get cool there. But then, she's offered a job at the snack shack and it doesn't hurt that she'd be working with a cute boy! Sunny's mom is not too keen on the idea. She doesn't think Sunny is ready for such independence.

Fans of this delightful series will not be disappointed. Sunny is relatable and often wry. The illustrations are energetic and the palette is pleasing. More Sunny, please!
