Looking for your next Sakura 2026 read. Come to the library during the Gr. 3-5 recess to hear the first chapter of Manatee Summer! Peter’s summer before middle school is full of challenges…his best friend is moving, his Grandfather is becoming more and more forgetful, and an injured manatee sparks Peter’s passion for wildlife conservation. This book is for fans of last year’s Sakura Medal book Odder by Katherine Applegate.
