-- The New York Times "Rockwell's vibrant storytelling, powerful content and moving author's note will likely send readers off to further reading about this extraordinary heroine."
-- Publishers Weekly, Starred "It's a powerful story, well told and handsomely set; worth of its courageous subject." -- The Horn Book Magazine, Starred From the Hardcover edition.
