Writen by a 7 grader
I thought this book was very good. The reasons I like it so much because I went through the same thing as she did, but she was lucky because she still had her mom in the end, but I lost my mom. I would recomend this book to anyone under the age of 11 or even someone that has went through the same thing. Good luck reading!

I may just be a middle schooler, but I thought Ida B. was an amazing book. It shows courage, sadness, and even imagination! I loved it and my friends at school too. It teaches you that you need to forgive and forget.

I really enjoyed Ida B. It was a real eye opener in many ways, I know that many of my friends enjoyed it too. It really inspired us to do something with our lives, and to be grateful for the people that surround us in love and joy!
