Title: Edna in the Desert
Author: Maddy Lederman
Genre: Middle-grade Fiction
Review:
Wow...this book was an unexpected gem :-) The story of Edna (main character) is probably something we can all somehow relate to, one way or another. Edna's a rebellious young teen; she doesn't act "rebellious" or "rude" on purpose...she just can't seem to help wanting to up-one everyone she meets. And I must say, Maddy Lederman really nailed the voice of a somewhat arrogant (but doesn't know she is) 13 year old--trust me, I speak from experience, as I know a person going through the "rebel teen" phase right now, lol.
