PRAISE FOR THE TRUTH COMMISSION "I absolutely loved The Truth Commission . Every page made me laugh aloud, while all the time the tears were creeping up on me. The characters are so real that I wouldn't be surprised if they knocked on my door right now. I hope they do, I want to spend more time with them." - Jaclyn Moriarty, author of The Year of Secret Assignments and A Corner of White "Susan Juby is a marvel. Wise, witty, and full of heart, her writing draws you in and won't let go. And just when you think it can't get any better, it does." - Meg Cabot * "With a deft hand and an open mind, Juby presents many layers of truth.

Hilarious."-- Kirkus Reviews , starred review for Alice, I Think STAR " Juby again demonstrates her ability to tell a story that's richly colored all the way to the edges . . . Whether kids fancy themselves unlikely stand-up heroes or just wish there was one out there as they enter high school, they'll relish Sherman's endearingly dorky nobility."-- BCCB , starred review for Getting the Girl AWARDS Alice, I Think : An ALA Best Book for Young Adults; Kirkus Reviews Editors' Choice; Amazon Top Ten Teen Boo Another Kind of Cowboy : An ALA Best Book for Young Adults; An ALA Rainbow List Book; A Kirkus Reviews Editors' Choice; White Pine Award Master List; Finalist for the Canadian Library Association YA Book Award Getting the Girl: An Edgar Award Finalist; Kirkus Editors' Choice; Georgia Peach Award Master List; White Pine Award Master List;
