![]() ![]() ![]() Jorge, at first glance, seems like your stereotypical jock: he's big, plays baseball, and a lot of kids are a little afraid of him. This third book focuses on thirteen-year-old Jorge Ruiz, first introduced in Brave. Thankfully, the author is simply amazing and delivers yet another new story that is just as impressive as the previous two. Copies of these should be in every middle-grade classroom, they're very topical and address issues (sometimes difficult ones) that all preteens and young teenagers deal with at some point in their lives.Īfter falling in love with Awkward, and enjoying Brave just as much (if not a little more), I hoped Crush would be the same. This is the third instalment of a graphic novel series that I absolutely adore. But when the group dynamic among the boys starts to shift, will Jorge be able to balance what his friends expect of him with what he actually wants?įollowing the overwhelming success of Awkward and Brave, Svetlana Chmakova's award-winning Berrybrook Middle School series continues with its next instalment - Crush! ![]() The only time he ever really feels off his game is when he crosses paths with a certain girl. He's big enough that nobody really messes with him, but he's also a genuinely sweet guy with a solid, reliable group of friends. Genre: Children's Graphic Novel Realistic Fiction ![]()
