'Narrating a young adult novel from a dwarf s perspective is nothing short of inspired... Marsh transcends genre to create an engaging narrative complex enough to keep not-so-young adults turning its pages.' --The New York Times
'A beautifully written coming-of-age story, inspired by real historical characters. A truly great read.' --Recommended Reads, Children's Books Ireland
'With a strong central character in Jepp, this is an unusual and powerful coming-of-age story about first love and taking control of your future.' --Booktrust
