Exciting chapter book children age 6-11 – Molly and the Peculiar Miss Saga Bloom
This exciting chapter book children age 6-11 introduces readers to Molly, an imaginative and thoughtful eight-year-old girl whose world is about to change in the most unexpected way. Molly does not like school. She especially does not like her strict and unkind teacher, Ruthie. School feels grey and endless, and together with her best friend Fia, Molly decides they will leave school forever. They just need to get through one last day — one final woodshop lesson, their favorite moment in an otherwise unbearable place.
But the next day does not turn out as they imagined. Ruthie had a fall, and broke both legs and an arm. In her place, a curious substitute teacher, Saga Bloom arrives, and nothing is ever the same. She is unlike anyone Molly has ever met.
