Review: I loved this book!
This book is about Amie and a man named Mr Tominski. He had doves in a nearby chapel. He trained his doves. This story is placed in 1899 in Kentuky. One day Amie meets Mr Tominski in the grave yard. Amie has a camera. Mr Tominski talks in German. He was pointing at himself. Amie said do you want me to take a picture of you? Mr Tominski shook his head. Amie took 2 pictures of Mr Tominski. This book is about differences. I recommend this book to anybody!!!

Summary: A Peaceful Read
Review: This book is a slice of life. Amie's family is wonderfully portrayed. I wouldn't mind if Betsy Byars wrote more stories about this family, but she doesn't need to because this story is complete. Amie's twin sisters are pretty awful--anyone growing up in a large family will recognize these kids. I'm not sure that the tragedy was really motivated by what the sisters said, but that's what's so good about this story--we really don't know what motivates a lot of tragedies. Fortunately the tragedy isn't absolutely devastating, though of course it is sad. Amie is really likeable and such an interesting girl. Thanks to Betsy Byars for an excellent story.
