Publisher's Notes
First Line: "Dear Miss Back Row:/I think/I like you/a lot,/especially/since/Christmas/when you wore that angel/crown on top of your so/fluffy brown hair."
Industry Reviews "A stunning book design enhances the unique interdependence of visual images and text." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Elizabeth Bush (03/19/1997)
"First-person narrators find expression in short, unrhymed verses that sensitively reveal their innermost thoughts and yearnings....Desimini's mixed-media illustrations make artful use of sculptured models, collages, oil paintings, photographs, and computer graphics....Every spread stands alone, a vignette of immeasurable emotion." Andreasen
