"I remember the discussion about this book and every one in class agreed that this one should be read by both children and their parents. Toni Morrison, author of Beloved, presents a great lesson about being put in boxes and how we shouldn't do it to children. I believe we shouldn't let it happen to ourselves either."
"I really believe this book is written for middle school students. It forces the reader to think about what behavior fits into "appropriate" and accepted."
