I liked the first of these books, Belle Prater's Boy, and I don't
dislike this follow up book, but it doesn't have quite the appeal of the
first book, for some reason.
Part of it could be
that the introduced characters, Joseph and Cassie, are just too
convenient. And the plot is just too neatly arranged. It just didn't
seem natural.
Still, I suspect that if this book were
to be read immediately following the first one, it would be well
received. It does provide the closure that Woodrow needed.
Upper elementary.
