I liked the first 3/4ers of this book better and then got a bit annoyed by the main character. Needed her to grow faster.

Neat to hear the early history of an iconic American brand, how it grew, and how it impacted society and sport. 
informative reflective slow-paced

Interesting morbid read. Would be more interesting if it were updated, the book is 20 years old and i would be curious to understand what advances have happened in that time.

I watched the cartoon version as a kid, but never read the book. I adored it. I'm very curious to watch the movie again to see how true it was to the book.

I love it when a book challenges me to examine something from different perspectives and to reconsider my initial reactions. This book is short and interesting and thought provoking. I loved it. A recommendation from plgb.
