Another fantastic Sunny book! In Sunny Figures it Out, Sunny starts hanging out with a boy from school. They have a lot of fun together, but pressure from others about dating has Sunny feeling some type of way. A great addition to 1 of the most popular graphic novel series in my 5th grade classroom.

@mattholm.bsky.social was just reading sunny figures it out (one of my fave series!) and saw you mentioned Genuardi's! I didn't work there, but I did work for redner's and other people that worked there. ended up working at the Audubon redner's, which was apparently the last genuardi's open.

@mattholm.bsky.social @scholastic.bsky.social SUNNY FIGURES IT OUT is the ONLY #MGLit book I've finished in July. I simply could NOT face more books where people died, having experienced some recent unexpected losses. Thanks, @yabookscentral.bsky.social yabookscentral.com/sunny-figure...

My students love Jennifer L. Holm's and @mattholm.bsky.social SUNNY series because despite some age appropriate drama, Sunny has FUN. Most #GraphicNovels are so trauma filled. Loved the newest, SUNNY FIGURES IT OUT. (7/1/25)

Holm’s OUTSIDE is a dystopian middle grade novel that young readers will not be able to put down. I was captivated by this group of 13 people (7 adults and 6 kids), navigate life in an underground bunker. What happens when Razzi gets the urge to sneak outside? Hold on tight, things get pretty wild!
