From the book cover:
"What can Chaim Potok know about being a little girl, one who is caught between two worlds? The answer is: everything. . . . Where before he illuminated a sectarian world, in this marvelous understanding of childhood, he shows its universality." -- San Francisco Chronicle
"The ideas here are rich, provocative and thickly interesting: the soul's desire for a sustainable faith, the tension between political worldly justice and religious, spiritual practice." -- Kirkus Reviews
"Potok's insight into the mind and heart of an adolescent girl, as well as his splendid evocation of the period, bring to life a story and a cast of characters which will not be quickly forgotten." -- Library Journal
