'Another authentic drama for young teens.'
Although Chris Higgins does not set out to preach or teach, there is much to be learned from her subtext ... A page turner and a half

'This is another great novel by Chris Higgins ... The story moves at a fast pace and is full of drama that always keeps you turning the pages.'
'This is a funny, interesting, heart-warming story.'
'This story captured my interest from the beginning and I was thrilled that it got better and better as I read. The author packs a great deal into this average-length teen book and every page had me wanting a little bit more. The characters in the story are superb: well fleshed out, with authentic voices for their age (and nationality).'
A thundering good read.
