Review quotes
"[F]ull of heart and vulnerability. ... The book includes great descriptive words such as "silky" and "shimmering," as well as similes such as "proud as a lion" and "heart pounding like drums," which make the story more interesting and engaging. Davey's illustrations beautifully radiate the emotion Claire feels on each page. I would without a doubt recommend this book as a new addition to any household or classroom."
