UNITED KINGDOM REVIEWS (cont'd)

< back

"A forceful family saga. A novel full of pithy humour that holds the reader’s attention to the very last page.”

“Gennifer Choldenko is a bright light in American teenage fiction, and her latest novel, Al Capone Does My Shirts (Bloomsbury) is one of her best.”

“A book that brings both tears and laughter and surely has the best title of the year.”

“A brilliantly researched and executed book, this is a roller-coaster read which is bound to excite children.”

“A thoroughly good read written with verve, humour and compassion.”
