Why read it?
1 author picked Maddi's Fridge as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this story in part because it deals with some messy realities. Maddi is ashamed that her family doesn’t have enough food to eat. When she reveals this to Sofia, she makes her promise to keep it a secret.

From Naomi's list on raising kind kids.
