Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Balancing the persistent flashes of brutality, Ogle magnificently includes sprouts of hope…[in] a fine balance carried by the author’s outstanding, gracious writing and a clear eye for the penetrating truth.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“Captures the experience of chronic poverty in the United States…But there is no shortage of humor, human kindness, and kid hijinks…In a country where forty-three percent of children live in low-income families, Ogle’s memoir is all too relatable.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Narrator Ramón de Ocampo’s use of accents and emotions adds much to Rex Ogle’s middle school memoir…De Ocampo excels at reflecting Rex’s wide range of feelings…[and] at portraying Rex’s growing trust in his developing friendship with Ethan. Listener warning: The abuse and ugliness in this memoir are poignantly and beautifully depicted—but may be disturbing. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.” —AudioFile
