A Must Read!

You won't regret buying this one...it's a classic. I first read it when I was about 12... I'm now 26 and have probably read it 50 times, it is that good!!! Having broken the bindings on 2 paperback copies from reading it so much, I got a hardback one from good old Amazon and am super happy! Trust me, you can't read it just once... also, its a great one to read with the youngsters in your family. It will teach them a lot and will get them into reading. Definitely a Classic Must Read!

Heart Warming!

My 12th Grade Teacher read me this book. I think it's sad, but has a wonderful ending!

Exceptionaly Wonderful Book

Every since 4th grade, I've read this book and now I'm in 8th. It is so good. Michelle Morgorian did such a good job showing the feelings of the characters that I cry every time when... well, just read it to find out. It's a book about siimple life... yep.

Marvelous!

This book is one of those undiscovered gems that you occasionally bump into during your lifetime and leave with a sense of profound emotional feeling. My religion teacher back in sixth grade recommended this to me and love her for it.
The characters are beautifully characterized. The supporting characters served their parts in the book well. Tom is a bit of a stock character, the gruff man with a heart of gold, but his love for Will was so real that I didn't mind his slight stereotypical personality. Will stands out as the hero of the book. His growth from a frightened, abused child to a strong, happy, young man was an excellent example of good character growth. All the characters reacted as real people would, felt like real people would, and ultimately, were real people (Except for maybe Will's mother. I'm glad to say I've never met anyone like her and hope I never will.).
There are several poignant moments in the book. Two involve Will's reaction to Zach's and Trudy's death and his time with the other woman's baby that leads to him realizing Trudy's death wasn't his fault.
The book was in one word wonderful, and I'm proud to give this book five stars.

Great story

My mother read me this book when I was in the sixth grade. I just finished reading it to my child. It was sad in some parts and made us cry, but the book is excellent and if you want your child to get a prespective of what other children may be going through behind close doors I highly recommend this book. It is a classic. Should be made into a movie.
