It's Marvelous Middle Grade Monday and I'm featuring a Spark Award winner: FLYING THROUGH CLOUDS by Michelle Morgan.
It's a YA but I think older middle grade readers will enjoy.

What do a famous painter and an influential writer have in common? They’re both creators of course! 📚👍🏽 #KidLit #picturebook #interview #bookblogger
