About this product
Product Information
Written in the same sweet and quirky style as Krone's award-winning debut novel Small Mercies, which was named a Best Middle-Grade Book of 2020 by Kirkus Reviews and listed on the 2021 Outstanding International Books List by the United States Board on Books for Young People, The Cedarville Shop and the Wheelbarrow Swap is bursting with the heart and humor of the loveable main character Boi, but etched with the cultural acuity and practiced hand of the author. Young readers will recognize themselves in Boi's universally relevant desires of a young pre-teen--love, friendship, belonging, and hope for a bigger future--and older readers will find much to explore in the book's quiet reflections on the circumstances of growing up destitute, with unemployed parents and ailing elders. Based in a small, rural town in South Africa not far from the author's home, with a young Black narrator, this book includes just enough geographical nuance to be educational for young readers, encouraging them to imagine life in other cultures, countries, and classes. Krone's books capture the essence of this wonderful mess we call life and will bring out the inner child in readers of all ages.

Reviews
"In this humorous, optimistic tale, Krone explores the mutability of friendships and the perils of trying to hold on to them too strongly. [...] A compelling look at friendship and community uplift under harsh circumstances." --Kirkus, "Bridget Krone has crafted a loving, funny story about a vibrant South African community where Boi's bold dream of a big swap goes in all kinds of unexpected directions. When the threads are knit back together, they become a hymn of kindness and joy." -- Jane Kurtz, author and winner of the 2022 IBBY-IREAD Outstanding Reading Promoter Award, "In this humorous, optimistic tale, Krone explores the mutability of friendships and the perils of trying to hold on to them too strongly. [...] A compelling look at friendship and community uplift under harsh circumstances." -- Kirkus Reviews "This novel is an engaging read with a satisfying ending ... the theme of grace ties everything together: when all seems an impossible knot, if one keeps looking and persevering, the secret to untangling might click into view--a timely message for our world." -- Africa Access "[A] tale of courage, never giving up and knowing there's grace in the world no matter how depressing your circumstances are. Aim for the moon because even if you miss, you might hit a star. [...] Trade by trade, [Boipelo] learned valuable life lessons, overcame obstacles, uplifted his community and brought to power the Nguni saying: 'Umuntu ungumuntu ngabantu' (you're because of others)." -- Woman Zone (South Africa), "In this humorous, optimistic tale, Krone explores the mutability of friendships and the perils of trying to hold on to them too strongly.

It is about ideas that can bring change. It is about community winning over isolation... [A] fantastic book for Middle Grade." -- Anja Dhinagaran, educator, Montessori School of Rome, Georgia "Bridget Krone has crafted a loving, funny story about a vibrant South African community where Boi's bold dream of a big swap goes in all kinds of unexpected directions.
