Reseñas de la Crítica

“Intrigues, danger, and the same strong focus on doing what is right turn a simple story into a compelling read. . . . A timeless jewel.”
–Kirkus Reviews, Starred

I loved this book when I read it and Audio book is excellent too. Suitable for young and old alike.

As a potter I could relate well to the characters and subject matter. Well presented, well read. I loved this book when I read it and was thrilled to listen to it through Audible.

Just fascinating

Liked the story, the history. The learning about all sorts of classes etc were captivating!

Wonderful

I recommend this book.
Iota about inlaid pottery work in the 12 century and about a talented orphan boy.

Details artfully inlaid...

I started this simple book with my 7th grade daughter who had to read it for a school project.
She thought it was boring, but by the time she listened to the first chapter I could tell she wouldn't stop listening.

Details artfully inlaid to create a beautiful, descriptive book useful for discussion and teaching life lessons. Concepts and conversations here and there, how life can be more beautiful with kindness, contrasted to gruffness.
Do yourself a favor ... delightful!
