"This honest and deeply felt story should have a place in most collections." —School Library Journal"Brisson's clear and heartening story is balanced by Bloom's mixed-media, deeply colored gauche/pencil/crayon paintings depicting an assortment of scenes filled with multicultural children and a compassionate and benevolent young girl who has found her way to make a difference." —Kirkus Reviews"The story is well-crafted and shows Melissa's growth as a character. . . . Overall, readers will connect to both the story and the illustrations." —Library Media Connection |
