Reviews

Ani and Colette are such wonderful characters, it's a simple joy just to spend time with them in their small town. Polak writes candidly about Ani's intimate feelings without any exploitation or sensationalism. Miracleville is not only a great book for girls, but also for boys who may actually learn to understand girls. --Louis Sachar (01/01/2011)

This delightful novel mixes modern-day issues and problems with age-old beliefs about miracles and faith. Ani, her parents, and her wild sister, Colette, all falter at some point, some longer than others, but come back around to the stability and consistency that only true faith can provide. --Jackie Warkentien, Youth Services Librarian Berwyn Public Library (03/25/2011)
