Industry Reviews
"The varying perspectives from street level to rooftop, from distance to close-up, all create a vividly imagined scene. An excellent resource for teaching diversity--and a little urban history as well."
Kirkus (05/15/2004)

"Adults promoting cultural diversity or anti-bullying causes will find an articulate, engaging voice here; kids will simply grab hold of a darn good story."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Elizabeth Bush
