COMMUNITY REVIEWS
One of my favorites submitted by susanlam on December 22, 2016, 6:18pm I've reread this book a few times, and I love the way the story and characters are handled. Diane Stanley draws a stark, vivid portrait of the experiences Ginny has while living like someone from the Iron Age at a small camp with her researcher father and other participants. Her struggles feel real, as does her voice, and her relationship to her mother, even across the distance, makes the story that much more powerful. A highly recommended read!
