  • Loved it!

    A quick read but this little book packs a punch. I opened the mail, got comfy, started reading & didn't come up for air until I was done. The author gives you a clear picture of the characters & setting. I'll put this one in my keep pile & read it again! Enjoy

    A very rich book that provides a great deal of thought and would work well in book discussions and classrooms, due to its moral dilemmas.
