Review # 1 was written on 2009-02-09 00:00:00 Robert Scharfe I first read this book in fifth grade. The emotions that Grace encounters in her family life and school are vividly portrayed. I felt that I was experiencing grief, anguish, and guilt right along with her. This would make a great book club book--there is plenty to mull over and discuss.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-03-08 00:00:00 Robert Pettinelli I loved this book and I am glad I found it or did it find me? Who knows! I have been a fan of Patricia Reilly Giff for a while, finding her books on and off again for over 10 years. This one was a treasure to read. "Grace O'Malley is doing just fine taking care of her father and younger sister, Amy. She certainly doesn't want her cousin Fiona from Ireland to move in and take over. Grace has enough to worry about, what with Amy's diabetes and her own problems at school with her teacher. But Fiona does arrive and tries hard to fit in with the family. It's still hard for Grace until the day Fiona shares her story of the brave pirate queen named Grace O'Malley. The tale makes her wonder: Does she have the great courage of the pirate queen?"
