专业书评 From School Library Journal
Grade 5-8–In this collection of stories about adolescent friendships, a few of the selections succeed in stirring up the tension, jealousy, and possessiveness of such relationships, but they're the exception. The sparks and friction that are so indicative of this age group are smothered by quick resolutions or older-but-wiser recollections of situations and relationships. Tessa Duder's story about a girl on an intercontinental flight gets it right, capturing the odd familiarity that develops when tucked in next to strangers. Sophie McKenzie's T4J and Belinda Hollyer's The Middle Ground explore friendships between males and females. While all of these stories offer sweet sentiments, many lack the courageous pluck and audacious attitude common among contemporary kids, and several assume a knowledge and a viewpoint that can only be gained through experience.–Alison Follos, North Country School, Lake Placid, NY
