El Jul 13 2011, Pamhasegawagmailcom dijo:
This book is profoundly moving. I felt as though I were living inside the skin of the author, feeling her heartbeats, her anxieties, her hopes and dreams. She has an exceptional way of writing through both her heart and mind to reach the reader. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to understand what children may experience before they head out for school each morning, before they leave for camp if they are fortunate to go to one, even though it would not be the wish or expectation of most people to believe that any child would be treated as she was.I look forward eagerly to Ms. Patton's next book, and will be ordering more copies of this one to share with friends.

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
