“You can’t have courage without fear, any more than you can have a ray of light without shadows.” The Sweep

Such a touching story about love, loss, and perseverance. Auxier did a great job painting a picture of Victorian London and the lives of child climbers during that period. I loved the historical information Auxier included about his research at the back of the book, too. I highly recommend this book for middle grades or anyone wanting to read a fun story about a girl and her monster.
