Jordan Henrichs’s Reviews > Cleo Porter and the Body Electric > Status Update

I'm rather obsessed with this... Burt is a really good writer. This is smart and timely, and the parallels to Little Red Riding Hood are fun. Sci-fi is a genre not experimented enough in middle grade lit and I'm excited to see what kids think of this.

Only issue... I find it strange that Cleo is the only one concerned with the medicine. Given the setting, I would think ANYONE would find the delivery highly strange.

Oh, the first sentence of this book is fantastic! And the chapter that follows hooks with just enough info. I'm really excited for this one...
