    A great childhood memory

    Great story about a little girl who learned to accept herself
  

*by E***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2018*

I first read this book when I was 11, and I've reread it many times since. I especially loved how the girl in the story let go of the image others had of her, and the nick name that went with it, and look back her real name, Rowan. I've always thought that was a beautiful name for a girl, even though it's traditionally a boys' name. The story dragged on in places, but it captured the girls fantasy life well, as well as her determination to create her own sense of self in the face of family problems and mistreatment. I recommend this book!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Well written, heartfelt story.
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2019*

When I read this as a young girl I enjoyed it but really missed the finer points. As as adult, I LOVE this story. I could not put it down. I highly recommend it.  It's about a spirited, misunderstood young girl.  My heart went out to her. At the end, my heart went out to her aunt also. It had a happy ending. Definitely a must read.
