Reviews

"Finely tuned." --Starred, Booklist "Bird's original voice has charm, grit, and spunkiness that, combined with small town sensibilities, unique characters, and humor, spell out a winner." --Starred, Kirkus Reviews "An idiosyncratic group of characters play out this touching and well-paced story about friendship, family, and connection." --Horn Book Magazine "Bird is literary kin to Scout, heroine of Harper Lee's famous "To Kill a Mockingbird....as charming and fresh as ...the month of May." --Boston Globe
