* “Thoughtful, creative, and compassionate . . . Miller’s pitch-perfect narrative voice balances humor and whimsy with harsher realities.

Wildly funny, charming, and deeply heartfelt.” –Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“Miller’s fresh and honest storytelling approach and her endearing characters are spot-on for early middle grade readers confronting the highs and lows of friendship, racial tension, and the trials of growing up.” —The Horn Book Magazine
