"I read this book as a child and have since read it several times. There's something about it that is so enchanting and mysterious. I love the development of the relationship between the two children, and the author's ability to capture the isolation of the setting and the situation and, later, the hopefulness of a better life. It's a touching story and one that I will definitely read again." — Amy (5 out of 5 stars)
