5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, original story.
My children (boys age 4 and 6) just love this book. The story of a woman and skeleton is funny and original. We read it a lot around Halloween -- it has become a seasonal favorite.

4-0 out of 5 stars Clever and fun!
Great tale of an unlikely friendship.Refreshing to see an older woman portrayed as brave, clever and spunky, not to mention a skeleton portrayed as somewhat skiddish.A fun story for both young and old readers. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars And the winner is....
Really- it sounds like a plain boring book- but it's not! No, From original stories like Clever Gretchen to Twisted ones like the sleeping prince or Mollie Whippie- it had all that and a bag of potatoes. My favourite was Kate Crackernuts. Then came the Sleeping Prince, next Manka and the Judge.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars A charming story for all ages
I had the pleasure of meeting Jean Fritz when I was 8 years old, when she spoke at an awards program for a youth writing competition, and having my copy of Homesick autographed. I very much enjoyed this book as a child, and just recently re-read it as an adult and found it every bit as entertaining and charming. Although it's categorized as youth reading, and written from the point of view of young Jean, I'm certain many adults would find it a good read as well. She tells her story with humor and longing, and paints a vivid picture of China in the 1920s, and of the culture clash between China and America, both while she's living in China and after she comes to the U.S. I highly recommend this book for any age. A perfect story for parents to read with their children, that will entertain both.

4-0 out of 5 stars Homeless: a perfect american classic story
This book was a perfect book for any junior student. It had the perfect story and it was perfect for any pre-teenage child. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and I am sure that others will too. The idea is wonderful and the way this was written is also wonderful....it is a MUST read!!!!!!! Please, read it....u have not read any book if you have not read this book....

5-0 out of 5 stars An out-of-print winner. Find a copy; you'll love it!
This was one of my favorite books when I was little. The language of this picture-book mystery was so engaging, I can still hear my mother reading it to me: "My knees were apple butter. My heart skipped rope in my chest."Read more
