| Ragweed & Poppy illustrated by Brian Floca |
I purchased Ragweed & Poppy by Newbery Award winning author, Avi a few years ago and have read and reread it. In an ideal forest adventurous mice, Ragweed and Poppy, form friendships, solve problems and exhibit leadership. This middle grade novel published in paperback in 2021 is 288 pages long. Caldecott winning artist Brian Floca rendered engaging depictions of mice and a tedious baby racoon in black and white throughout the book. While this is Book 2 in a series of 7, I read it first and as a stand-alone book; it is a fun book for all. Advanced readers will read above grade level and reluctant readers will enjoy the illustrations and mouse antics.
