"...a heartwarming and uplifting story...[that] shines...with vibrant themes of community, self-empowerment and artistic vision delivered with a satisfying verve." – Kirkus
"Axioms like 'One man's trash is another man's treasure' and 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder' come gracefully to life in Schindler's tale about the value of hard work and the power of community…Auggie's enthusiasm and unbridled creativity are infectious, and likeminded readers will envy her creative partnership with [her grandfather] Gus." – Publishers Weekly
“Determined to save her home, Auggie [uses] pottery shards, vivid glass, and metal sculptures [to] transform the house’s exterior into a vibrant expression of the love within its walls. In Auggie, Schindler creates a spunky, sympathetic character young readers will engage with and enjoy.” – The Bulletin for the Center of Children’s Book Studies
“The protagonist perches in the reader’s heart as she goes about trying to “‘discover her shine.’” - NY Journal of Books
“A delicious, tantalizing love story that will captivate you until the final, satisfying sigh.”—Kristin Walker, author of A MATCH MADE IN HIGH SCHOOL

Holly, your art designer has unfortunately used the same photo that is used on the cover of Rain Village, a book by Carolyn Turgeon.
ReplyDeleteI love the cover, though it is just like Carolyn Turgeon's Rain Village... How come?
ReplyDeleteYes, the covers are similiar...this happens far more often than we as readers are often aware...This in no way changes MY feelings for the cover. It is BEAUTIFUL, and I can't imagine another image that more accurately portrays the emotional content of my novel.
ReplyDeleteI think it's beyond stunning!
