Title: A young person's look at gentrification and change
Review: Although I am well over the suggested reading age for this book, I'm one of those who never got over "Harriet the Spy" or "From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler." So I started to read it as a light book with a strong female character. I ended reading it with a renewed appreciation of spatial memory and the need for coexistence of those who are there, and those who will come. As a neighborhood organizer dealing with just these issues, "The Outcasts of 19 Schuyler Place" has a permanent place on my bookshelf to remind me why I do what I do.
Is the review positive or negative?
