Negative Positive
Title: Beginning a dialogue
Review: The publisher recommends this book for ages 10 and up. I would agree that a mature and articulate 10 year could read this book. Sacks's protagonist begins as a self absorbed child, but emerges as a more aware and politically conscious teenager. Some readers may believe it to be sexually explicit, however, I would contend that the book artfully opens up a dialogue for pre teens and emerging teenagers about peer pressure, their presence in this world, and their obligation as a global citizen.
Is the review positive or negative?
