"beautiful story, beautifully told"
Excellent storytelling. Inspired me to want to read more from this author; now I have more of her books in my wishlist, to share with my family.
"A bedtime story for parents!"
Surprisingly entertaining! Finally, a bedtime story for parents who've experienced that special child who just can't call it a day. Witty, sarcastic, and guiltily satisfying for that exasperated inner voice of the exhausted parents' desperate pleas for their children to please, please go the .... to sleep.
"Classic"
Thoroughly enjoyed the experience all over again, and got to introduce this timeless coming of age story to my children just as they're embarking on young-adulthood themselves.
