  “Glad I read the book before I saw the (disappointing) movie. A story of some of life's harder lessons - jealousy, loyalty, adapting to difficult circumstances - and of courage and love. A very touching story.”

  “A good read if you don't mind a pretty heavy-handed plot, wherein coincidental things happen because if they didn't, the story wouldn't have worked. ”
