Query: BEAUTIFUL, SENSITIVE AND HEARTWARMING

Set in the 1950's, the story is that of a Icy Sparks who at the age of ten becomes aware that all is not right with her world. Suffering from Tourettes Syndrome, she is taunted by her classmates, humiliated by her teacher and shunned by those who do not understand her affliction. The story gives the reader a clear indication of what it is like to grow up financially poor and lonely, but to be rich in strength and character. While I will agree that some of the characters were weak, I found the story, itself, to be extremely moving, inspirational, heartwarming and certainly well worth reading. If you only see the negative aspects, you are missing something very rare and wonderful about the book.
