This is a book to celebrate. The art is first class, the
verse extraordinary. Every teacher who uses imagery in
creative writing will be thankful for it. Every teacher
of the gifted and the learning disabled needs to know
about it, so they and their students can share in its
success.”

“The
struggle to overcome adversity during childhood has a
way of yielding some remarkable by-products. One of
these is creativity. Another sensitivity. Samantha’s
perceptions embody both of these attributes.”
