Little by Little
The Canadian novelist writes about her childhood and adolescence, detailing the physical and social impacts of her visual impairment in ways child readers can comprehend. This is an autobiographical portrait of a determined creative person who integrates her disappointments with her satisfactions. Utilizing dialogue and a snappy pace effectively, the author's observations on human nature and on her own development as a writer are equally valuable. ©1988 Cooperative Children's Book Center
