Recenzii

This story has tremendous potential for classroom use. An extremely thought-provoking book that would be an easy read for most 9- to 11-year olds. -- Janet McGonagle - Children's Books in Ireland Children's Books in Ireland What an impressive debut! ... This book convincingly captures life's hassles. Perdue is exceptionally good on Adam's various relationships ... (her) handling of the Adam/Grandad scenes are not only brilliant, they are also genuinely moving, and the starling plot is never allowed to become tweety-sweety. My nine-year-old thought it fantastic. -- Niall MacMonagle - The Irish Times This book is touching and sometimes sad. It would be great for children aged 8 upward. -- Teenage reviewer Catherine O'Mahony, iQ magazine This is a good story told with much lively dialogue and it will sustain children's interest through thirteen quite meaty chapters. -- The School Librarian Sensitive study of a shy and insecure boy who, in the protection of something smaller and weaker than himself, manages to finally confront the boys that constantly pick on him at school. -- Books Ireland Adam's Starling belongs on the shelf of any home with school-going children ... The bonding-with-animals theme makes this an appealing book, crashing through age and gender definitions in a warm-hearted way. -- Evening Herald gentle novel which confronts a serious problem in a sensitive and honest way. -- Bisto Award judges This is an intelligent, instructive book heavy with intent. -- Eileen Battersby - The Irish Times Its sensitive, imaginative treatment of the now cliched theme of bullying makes it a great stocking-filler -- The Sunday Independent a perceptive and very moving story which will resonate with many readers - bullies and the bullied. An excellent opportunity for discussion of this emotive subject -- parentsintouch.co.uk deserves another look -- Evening Echo still as relevant today -- Books Ireland all the elements in this story blend perfectly in a carefully measured way that make it a compulsive read -- Irish Examiner
