Recensione:

"A story that takes off like a 747 and doesn't let up until the very end."
--San Francisco Examiner

"WELL, MARK CHILDRESS HAS GONE AND DONE IT AGAIN, GIVEN US A NOVEL FULL OF HEART AND MAGIC, POETRY, AND GREAT GOOD HUMOR."
--Anne Lamott

"WONDROUSLY IMAGINATIVE . . . BRIMMING WITH MAGIC AND MYSTERY . . . A modern-day fable with echoes of Alice in Wonderland, The Little Prince, Peter Pan, and The Wizard of Oz . . . A terrific summer read--meaty enough to make you think, but breezy enough to consume with almost effortless delight."
--The Charlotte Observer

"ENTERTAINING . . . EXHILARATING."
