Although she is breaking the law Georgina is also breaking the reader's hearts with her tragic circumstances which have turned her into a criminal. She does in the end learn that she already knew right from wrong with the help of two well developed and believable supporting characters. Reviewed by Kitty Flynn in The Horn Book (v. 83 no. 3 (May/June 2007) p. 286) Found through HW Wilson collection http://vnweb.hwwilsonweb.com.login.ez... See Lit Circle Discussion This is a book I started reading for an assignment but it turned out to be a great book. I really enjoyed it and I am reading it to my fourth-grade class. Georgina's life is such a struggle and then she comes up with the idea of stealing a dog for the reward money. The idea consumes her but her conscience fights with her the whole time. She meets people on the way who help her see the light. She finally comes clean and feels much better about her life and herself. Oh, and she also moves from living in her mom's car to a home with her own room. For the most part, the story is one kids can relate to and I expect it will inspire some interesting conversations among my students. This is a good fiction novel for children, to help them open their minds to the struggles other children face. I'd probably use this during a diversity lesson or a moral lesson. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
