Reviews

"Alternately raw, poignant, quiet, and loud...Readers will have no trouble finding little pieces of themselves in this beautifully orchestrated collection." -- School Library Journal (starred review) "Gripping and provocative in its portrayal of vastly different lives and experiences, strong sense of place, and sheer exuberance." -- Publishers Weekly "[An] exceptionally well-selected collection." -- The Horn Book
