     “This exquisite story is a treasure for teachers and children who care about justice and the power of the pen.  How good it is to have a deep and significant historic novel that is easily accessible to readers of early chapter books.” Dr. Lucy Calkins, Reading & Writing Project, Columbia University Teachers College
