Rating: Summary: Stunning Review: This is a very moving story about a little girl, Bird, who is wise beyond her six years. There is a lot of harshness, violence and horror in her tale. I am assuming that the author survived a very tough childhood as some of the scenes are quite graphic and haunting. There is light, however, at the end of the tunnel, a chance for them all.This is a book that will play itself back in my mind, as it opened my eyes to an entirely different lifesytle.
Rating: Summary: Don't borrow it BUY IT! Review: This is absolutely one of the best books I have ever read. It's hard to imagine a little girl with such spirit as Bird. I will definately reread this many times, and I'm sure I will enjoy it just as much as the first time I read it. A few say it's too depressing and a little violent, but please don't let that stop you from reading this moving story. You won't regret buying this book.
Rating: Summary: How Can I Ever Forget Bird? Review: This is my most favorite book, ever! Connie Mae Fowler has made me laugh, and made me cry, and made me understand some things about child abuse. The characters were so developed, I found myself 'looking' for Bird when I went out shopping! An outstanding contribution!
