I want to see MG be a success, but right now, it just seems to be another fad that never failed to materialize, even though the money is still out there and authors are jumping into the fray like never before. The sales, though, seem to be missing, and the reason isn’t glaringly obvious. Are tweens skipping MG for the ever-present YA novel, or are MG books not resonating with today’s 10 year olds, or what?
