If you saw two dirty, ragtag children who growled and snarled, would you believe they were raised by wolves?

Delores Price has an unusual life with multiple ups and downs. She is an unloved fatty who hurts herself, a mental case who realizes (after many years) that she can love and be loved. This is not my favorite book of Lamb but is worth reading.

A wonderful twist at the end that will surprise you.

Awesome book!!!!! One of my favorites!!!!

It wasn’t my favorite!!!! But still good!!!

Simon meets a dog that has a bone better than his. The trick is... this bone belongs to Simon's reflection! Funny story that leans toward acceptance.

Overall a very good read. A little long and dragging at times (it’s a long and detailed book) but excellent comprehensive history of the Hudson River. I especially enjoyed the early revolutionary history! But all of it was interesting and I learned a lot!

Mixed review for this one…I enjoyed the aspect of getting to know the characters but overall a little disappointed in the end.

Not a fan at all!!!!!!

many books about institutionalization try to take a side on either institutionalization or deinstitutionalization - this book walks the line between both - emphasizing the major failures of both, because the reality is that both failed in catastrophic ways. finished this one on July 11th.
