Love….love….loved this book!
Why? The main character, Willow Chance, is so endearing, so innocent and
so special.
Willow has such a unique perspective. She is obviously very intelligent, yet she has
many obsessive tendencies. She also has
trouble fully understanding social situations.
When her class is given a standardized test, Willow finishes
before all others in a very short time.
Her score is perfect! Her teacher believes she has cheated. Willow is referred to a counselor- Dell Duke.
Dell is pretty dysfunctional himself. He does pick up on Willow’s genius,
however.
When a life changing event occurs, Willow becomes completely
changed. She can’t speak. She stops
counting by 7s. She can’t function
normally at all.
Read this book! Willow’s recovery is endearing! Her effect on others who respond to her
plight is well worth the read.
