Review # 1 was written on 2019-09-27 00:00:00 Steven Whirley One of my favorite books. Great story, acrostic poems to start each chapter, interesting drawings. (Who can resist a graph of the ups and downs of your day?) Realistic portrayal of the struggles and joys of growing up with a single parent, quirky caring friends and neighbors, and a realistic main character. This book does a particularly good job of showing the anger, jealousy and happiness that can all exist in one little girl. WHY is this book no longer in print? Luckily, used copies are readily available on line. I've bought two. One to cherish and one to lend.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-05-16 00:00:00 Marc Trudel I should've loved this. But I couldn't get into it. And yet I really have no idea why. I lightly skimmed after the first two chapters and just didn't ever feel tempted to wade in, much less immerse.... I do recommend it to you if you're interested though. Btw, it's a full-length heavily illustrated novel for ages 6-9 (I think), but it's more the shape of a fat picture-book.
