Mustaches for Maddie by Chad Morris and Shelly Brown

Mustaches for Maddie (c) 2017 by Chad Morris and Shelly Brown
Mustaches for Maddie is a well-written story by Chad Morris and Shelly Brown that makes its reader think. Geared toward a young audience, it fits in the Middle Grade genre, but even so, an adult reader can appreciate the conflicts and struggles of the young protagonist.

Maddie wants to impress her peers. Much like any 6th grade would want. She especially wants to impress Cassie, the queen-bee of the 6th grade, and so much so, that she often goes against what she believes she should do in order to get Cassie's attention. But when something happens that is nothing that Maddie or her parents ever expected, she starts looking at life a little differently.

This is a good book with a good lesson from which both young and old.
