Review
Praise for Backwater...
"Bauer's characters crackle with eccentricity and exhibit glimmers of intense emotion."--Publishers Weekly Praise for Almost Home by Joan Bauer "Sugar's voice is convincing, both as storyteller and young writer; her natural good humor shines through what could be a sad story indeed. Quirky supporting characters--both human and dog--add to its appeal. Sugar...will win readers hearts." --Kirkus, starred review "Sure to inspire..." --Library Media Connection, starred reviewAbout the Author
Joan Bauer (www.joanbauer.com.) is the author of numerous books for young readers. She received a Newbery Honor Medal for Hope Was Here, and the L.A. Times Book Prize for Rules of the Road.
