Industry Reviews
"The nuance of character dynamics, the implications of adult actions for children caught unawares, and the dawning revelations of institutional injustice all mark this as a novel for sophisticated older readers despite the narrator's beginning her account with her sixth birthday."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Betsy Hearne (04/01/2003)
