The illustrations are engaging, detailed, accurate, and humorous. Kids will enjoy examining them for details. Kids love transportation and this book is full of many different vehicles. It will also be useful to use with kids at Safety Towns or Traffic Gardens.
Not only is Ronda Loves Runabouts fun for adults to read to kids or slightly older kids to read to themselves, but I also think adults will learn something as well. This book could actually be useful for adults learning to use new roundabouts in their town. Roundabouts have loads of benefits for drivers, pedestrians, and the climate - we just need to get more comfortable with them - and this book will help with that!...more
The writing was good. . Overall a good read. The only thing that bothered me was that the battle scenes were just not believagood but could be better.

Along the way, we sympathize with Chasten’s struggles coming out first to himself and then to his family - and then further struggling to put himself through college as the first member of his family to accomplish it. Along the way he finds both heartbreak and romance - and finally a certain young mayor from South Bend. Together they navigate a relationship, being an out couple in politics, and a stunningly run for President. Chasten’s experiences on the campaign trail are both funny and revealing - showing us an America where homophobia and hope both exist.
So many young people will see themselves in these pages - especially LGBTQ youth who wonder if there is a safe and affirming place for them, or even a future in more conservative areas. As a political junkie, I enjoyed the campaign stories and observations, especially Chasten’s reflections on some of the more controversial issues a gay couple faced. And, of course, the inside stories about Pete.
Chasten is both a humorous, conversational writer and a deeply moving one. This is a highly original and different sort of “spouse of a candidate” memoir. It’s both groundbreaking history and affirming for members of the LGBTQ community. Highly recommended. ...more
