Today’s B-P Summer Book Club selection is “Martin Bridge: Ready for Takeoff!” It is written by Jessica Scott Kerrin and is recommended for children entering first or second grade. Martin Bridge is a young boy who means well. However, sometimes his plans backfire. In three illustrated stories, Martin meets two bus drivers with very different ways of relating, makes a hard choice about a friend’s pet, and takes on a model rocket competition that almost costs him a friendship. The daily routines and struggles of childhood are presented with warmth, understanding, honesty and humor.
