About
"This sequel [to Tru & Nelle] stands on its own. The writing is gorgeous-not one false stroke. Neri's uneasy peer into a piece of Americana squeezes dribs of hope from precious blood. Totally brilliant. Bravo!" -Rita Williams-Garcia, 3-time Coretta Scott King Award-Winner and Newbery honoree for One Crazy Summer ? "An absorbing story of true friends in troubled times." -Kirkus, starred review "As in Neri's first book about the real-life Truman Capote and Harper Lee, middle grade readers will laugh, cry, and be surprised by the many unlikely situations these preteens seem to find for themselves and their families." –School Library Journal -
