Out Of The Dust
Author: Karen Hesse
Genre: Children's Books
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


What a gem! As an adult sometimes I forget there are treasures to be found in children's books as well. The prose of this novel is a voice I will carry for a long time. From the first page I was drawn in with Billie Jo to travel the dusty roads of her adolesence. This is an amazing book and well worth all the awards it was given.
