Reviews
"Jonah is an appealing her with believable motivations, a loving but beleaguered mother, and a refreshingly sassy friend in Blister. Readers will be pleased with an ending that cleverly combines wish fulfillment and reality." --Booklist "Shreve's understatement and restraint lend a solidity to the kid-success story that such plots rarely possess. The book is pleasantly unpuritanical in its implication that Jonah's tendency to tell tales is part of his ability to dream that leads to his achievement, and the development of his relationsip with Blister from default to genuine friendship is subtly depicted." --Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Susan Shreve writes with snap and verve; it's a treat to see a young her so ably making lemonade out of an acid bath." --The New York Times Book Review "Middle schoolers, especially those feeling a bit out of step, will cheer when Jonah actually pulls off this nearly impossible feat, lining up Michael Jordan and some child celebrities as interview subjects. Shreve's strong characters, convincing dialogue and soothing dose of fantasy fulfillment will likely have readers casting votes for the return of Jonah as well." --Publishers Weekly

    Item was as described, was promptly shipped, and the packaging was impressive (in a bag placed in a box with paper and inside an outer plastic wrap! Very pleased with the follow-through.

    I must make a correction from my original feedback. The seller HAD sent me a reply with a very courteous apology and explanation about my not receiving my purchase, but for some reason that email was sent to my Junk e-mail folder and I did not see that until much later after I had posted my original response. I humbly and wholeheartedly apologize for my first feedback, and must credit the seller for their swift response and attention to customer service. Please accept my apology! Thank You
