Customer Reviews

I could "feel" my students in this book!

Thank you Stephen Roos for writing this book. I had been searching for a good book to help launch a conflict-resolution though read-aloud program and this book filled my fiction requirements. I can't wait to engage my students in a lively conversation of how Kit and Phoebe should have behaved and why they think they behaved the way they did. I am sure that a wonderful revelation awaits my students as I use this book as a springboard. Thanks again.
