Hi friends, The blog tour continues with this lovely review from Unleashing Readers. If you are a teacher (or a parent!), check out the discussion questions at the end to use with your kids.

Review from The Story Shop

August 16, 2018 By Marcy Campbell

I promise I won’t post each review that comes in, but this one really touched me because it gets at some of the concerns I heard early on about the book, namely that my 1st person, flawed narrator, shouldn’t be telling this story, or possibly shouldn’t be in the book at all. I was of […]

Wall Street Journal Review!

August 16, 2018 By Marcy Campbell

So thrilled to have my book featured in the Wall Street Journal! Love this line: “[Chloe’s mother] shows how a decent person behaves with someone who has less than almost everything–except imagination.” The full article follows. “The Rough Patch” sounds like a great picture book, too, doesn’t it? Children’s Books: The Rotten Glamour of an […]

BookPage Review

August 16, 2018 By Marcy Campbell

Thank you to BookPage for this wonderful review, including this comment: “Chloe’s mother proves a clever teacher, gently encouraging Chloe to look deeper.” I was so glad to see that because most reviewers haven’t commented on Chloe’s mom. I remember when I first saw Corinna Luyken’s illustration of her, leaning over an upside down bicycle, […]

Blog Tour Day 3: Happily Ever Elephants

August 9, 2018 By Marcy Campbell

Blog tour continues with this review at Happily Ever Elephants (love the blogger’s kids with the book, don’t you?) The review talks about the way the book encourages kids to walk in another person’s shoes. It’s so hard! But, one thing I make clear in my presentation on the book, is that it’s not just […]
