I agree, homelessness is not something you often see in a middle grade novel - as a matter of fact, I can't think of another homeless protag in a middle grade book I have read. <br /><br />I love that you and your son are reading and reviewing books together. Good insights on his part. :-)<br /><br />DanikaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3323060183493034578.post-1688998650425872692012-10-09T09:21:29.289-07:002012-10-09T09:21:29.289-07:00Oh that opening line tugged at my heart so bad I w...Oh that opening line tugged at my heart so bad I want to read the book like NOW.<br />Thanks for the feature Michael. :)Akosshttp://akossiwaketoglo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3323060183493034578.post-39500546957744507622012-10-08T15:43:53.883-07:002012-10-08T15:43:53.883-07:00Another good review for this book.
