The memories of childhood that she creates breathe life into characters so raw and real that you can feel them on the page.

When she gets to Mississippi, she wants to make friends with a boy from school but he doesn't seem interested in getting to know her. This is where the book takes off and an interesting story unfolds about how Lottie learns to stand up for herself and be strong.
