I was assigned this book for my Literacy class at AUM. At first, I couldn't really get into it. The language is kind of weird...I'm not sure why...it's kind of like splotchy writing. After getting into it, I understood more of why it was written that way. It's written from a young orphan's perspective and I think the language of the book reflects her splotchy life. It was a great story about an orphan girl named Hollis Woods and her journey of finding a family. I ended up really liking this book. I would recommend it to anyone. It's intended for younger readers because of its short length, but I think it would be a good read for anyone.
