Reviews
Kids will tune in to this book’s clear message about appearances. —Publishers Weekly
A worthy subject that should give kids plenty to think about. –Kirkus Reviews
This book will not only be enjoyed by teen readers for its entertaining story, but also for its statement about prejudice. Zephaniah is not just telling a story of a brave and inspiring young man, he is also teaching readers an important lesson through the voice of Martin. –VOYA
