Edith learns who she is and who she wants to be

Review by Rebecca

Looking For Me... in this great big family is a good book for kids about nine years old. It is about a girl named Edith who is one of 12 kids in a Jewish family in Depression-era Baltimore. Edith is struggling to find her place in the world among her brothers and sisters. She has to go through a lot of hard times before she can figure it out. Slowly but surely, she learns who she is and who she wants to be. This book is fairly short and focuses on small details a lot of the time.

Really sweet and quick read

Review by elicht

The book is really sweet and wholesome, and overall tugs at ones heartstrings. It's a poetry book, so it's easier to finish rather quickly, if you have deadlines. Also easier to read in a packed schedule, and you still get the whole message.

Review by lmreads

If you like poetry than this is a book for you! It is kinda sad at some parts, but at others it can be really happy. It is about a girl who has 11 other siblings and her life around it. Enjoy!
