This book held my attention throughout. Though there's nothing fancy about the language--not in an off-putting way, anyway--I found it entirely captivating, and there are some really lovely moments in it, such as when Miranda thinks about the way the sun is shining.
In addition, this book touches upon a lot of issues, including class, race, and developing a social conscience, but it never does so in a way that felt heavy-handed to me.
I thought the central plot was interesting, and the resolution was very moving to me.

I don’t even remember what happened in this book but it’s lived rent free haunting me for years. Great work!

Amazingly well done. Loved the integration of A Wrinkle In Time and fun details from the 25,000 Pyramid. Would be great to reread as well!

Less than 200 pages of perfection. A beautiful gift to book loving youth (& us adults too). The words, story, characters all just ring true, even amidst the mystery and sci-fi of it all.
