"This book has optimism and wit despite the gloomy situation of its characters. There's this pearler, 'Did we get up to mischief? Every chance we got. Did we get caught? Not enough for us to stop trying...' And 'Besides, 'dobbing in' someone would only make any kid a pariah, a sure path to a painful existence. Violence was an unseen undertone that permeated all our daily lives.'"
