Title: DELIGHTFUL MOTHER-DAUGHTER COLLABORATION
Product review: This remains a book I treasure today. This is without a doubt Marilyn Sachs' finest work.Dorrie, a gifted 6th grader has to write her life story for a school assignment. Her story is certainly an interesting and worthwhile one because it is during that year her life changes in quantum leaps.Dorrie's triplet siblings, Deirdre, Randolph and Raymond are born and she feels shunted aside. Her parents become foster parents to two neglected neighborhood children. The only thing I didn't like was the emotional blackmail they used on her when "consulting" with her about bringing these new children into their home.The drawings, done by Anne Sachs are a bonus treat. The voice of Dorrie rings true; at 11 I could readily identify with Dorrie. Readers of all ages will enjoy this. I wish it was back in print. This is a classic.
