Memory Jars is a perfect gift for graduation! A book about saving your favorite memories and keeping them close forever, from Vera Brosgol, creator of the Caldecott Honor book Leave Me Alone!

Freda is devastated when she canât eat all the delicious blueberries sheâs picked. She has to wait a whole year before theyâre back, and she doesnât want to lose them! Then Gran reminds her that they can save blueberries in a jar, as jam. So Freda begins to save all her favorite things. But it turns out that saving everything also means she canât enjoy anything, and Freda realizes that some things are best saved as memories.

Memory Jars playfully encourages children to savor life''s ephemeral and enduring moments in funny and engaging ways. An ideal read aloud for those mourning a loved one, for teachers celebrating the end of the school year with students, or any time a childâs âfrustrated by a good thing being over too soon.â -Booklist, starred review

âA lovably quirky girl takes âpreservingâ to a whole new level. Add Brosgolâs signature big-eyed characters, a touch of dark humor and a mouthwatering jam recipe, and youâve got all the ingredients for a sequel." -The New York Times
