Table of ContentsReviewsStarred Review, The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, February 2013: With its historical backdrop, enjoyable narrative, and endearing heroine, this will appeal both to fans of Philbrick s The Mostly True Adventures of Homer P. Figg and Kelly s The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate. Starred Review, School Library Journal, January 2013: Timberlake seamlessly integrates information about two significant events that occurred in Wisconsin in 1871 Georgie s physical and emotional odyssey that occurs between those two events will linger in readers minds. Starred Review, The Horn Book, January/February 2013: it s Georgie s voice that really brings the story to life, with its original, folksy turns of phrase and self-deprecating humor that make it as entertaining to read as a Christopher Paul Curtis novel. Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews, December 1, 2012: Georgie's story will capture readers' imaginations with the very first sentences and then hold them hostage until the final page is turned.
