Praise for this book
"With her distinctive blend of compassion and quirky humor, Byars expands the Blossom saga with a story of friendship, responsibility and--maybe--love."--Publishers Weekly "There's no reason to single out a best Blossom book--this is as funny as any, its wit nicely laced with pungent good sense."--Kirkus Reviews
