Review:
"A touching story of friendship that is easy to read yet hard to forget."
--School Library Journal

--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, starred review
Praise for Firegirl * "Tom's connection to Jessica changes his perspective on himself, his peers and friendship, and underscores the reward of reaching out to another.... This novel maybe be brief, but it leaves a big impact."--Publishers Weekly, starred review
"In this poignant story, readers will recognize that even by doing small acts of kindness, people stand to gain more than they lose."
--Booklist

"This novel may be brief, but it leaves a big impact." -Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Tom's a normal seventh-grader, negotiating a slightly prickly stage in his long friendship with Jeff.The arrival of new girl Jessica Feeney, however, changes everything; Jessica, who is attending a local hospital for treatment, has been badly burned by a fire, and her terrible disfigurement shocks the class into confusion. This isn't the usual book about adjustment to difference; instead, Abbott brilliantly explores the kids' struggle to manage the intrusion of abnormality in their lives.this is a thoughtful exploration of a brief interlude's lasting impact." -The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books From the moment Jessica arrives, life is never quite the same for Tom and his seventh-grade classmates. They learn that Jessica was in a fire and was badly burned, and will be attending St. Catherines while getting medical treatments.
