Constance is a wild, stubborn young girl growing up poor in a small industrial town in the late 1800's. Beneath her thread-worn exterior beats the heart of a dreamer and a wordsmith. But at age twelve, she's orphaned. Running away to join the circus-like kids do in adventure books-seems like such a brilliant idea... or is it?
Anne of Green Gables travels around the world in 80 days and follows the Yellow Brick Road to find the Wizard of Menlo Park. - The author's elevator pitch
This is one of my ten-year-old daughter's bedstand books. She keeps it by her bed, and I find her reading it over and over. When she accidentally left her hard copy at home when she went to her grandparents', we had to get her a soft copy for her tablet. She loves Constance! - Cathy Karas
A beautiful coming of age story that shows that although dark days loom over us all, a positive outlook on life can make even the worse situations feel better. The heroine, Constance Whittlesey, tells her story in the first person, bringing a storyteller's charm to the entire adventure. - Author Joseph Gatch
Lori Alden Holuta's debut novel is a delightful read that will appeal to teens and young adults as well as some not-so-young adults. The tone is light and witty-I found myself smiling often at a turn of phrase or laughing at a clever twist-and the themes are positive and uplifting. - Mark Nofsinger
