I have forwarded this to all of the DG librarians and the DG Public
Library.  Also to Anderson's Bookshop in Downers Grove. They hosted Kristen
Levine when the book first came out...

I LOVED the book, however, we are a K-6 building and the book is a bit
mature for my audience.  We toyed with the idea of a One Book, One School
program using the book, but opted out after I read it because of content.
Great for a middle school audience however!

Good Luck!
