Illus. in full color by Steve Johnson. "The story of a young girl growing up

within the shadows of a great steel mill is eloquently depicted in this

insightful, autobiographical picture book. Studded with vibrant imagery, the

story subtly emphasizes the loving, caring, respectful relationships within a

steelworker's family. Cleanly executed pages, evocative illustrations, and

manageable vocabulary make this a unique purchase for a broad age

range."--School Library Journal
