Reviews
"A marvelous book. . . . Richly comic, abounding in decency (in the largest and finest sense), never reluctant to wear its heart on its sleeve and proclaim its passions straightforwardly, this is a novel to be remembered and cherished." -- Cleveland Plain Dealer
"It is clear that Wendall and the Oler family are on their way to a place in American literature now held by Tom Sawyer and Aunt Polly and Holden Caulfield and his little sister. . . . [The novel has] a touch of genius about it-reaching beyond the word for the emotion no word can express." -- St. Louis Post-Dispatch
