Praise

"What [Patricia McCormick] produced is a journey into the horror of those years, told with the ingenuous directness of youth and employing her subject's rough-and-ready patois....As the story unfolds from atrocity to anguish it gains momentum until, in its final chapters, it becomes a gripping account of the inner turmoil of a child soldier."
