Wolff's daring, blank verse novel is an eloquent, realistic portrait of a teenage mother struggling to keep ahead and a fourteen-year-old babysitter who tries to help her through love and understanding. "Beautifully crafted. . . . Powerfully moving".--Kirkus Reviews, pointered review. LaVaughn needed a part-time job. What she got was a baby-sitting gig with Jolly, an unwed teen mother. With two kids hanging in the balance, they need to make the best out of life -- and they can only do it for themselves and each other. ``Radiant with hope, this keenly observed and poignant novel is a stellar addition to YA literature,'' said PW in a starred review, praising Wolff's use of ``meltingly lyric blank verse'' to tell of two inner-city teenage girls struggling toward better lives. Ages 12-up. (Aug.) Copyright 1994 Cahners Business Information. |
