Book excerpt: Pity Me schoolchildren are dying. The Establishment claim the Great Goddess is pulling out the weeds to make way for the flowers. But thirteen-year-old Jamie Tuff knows different, thanks to her newly wandering soul. Her Gift will set her on a path of discovery and will land her in mortal danger. What will win out? The power of fear...or of hope? Magical fantasy adventure for readers aged 10+. "The present world is often terrifying to a sensible adult. Hinton reflects its effect on youngsters in a powerfully imagined world that hums with poetry. In its pages, in the words of Yeats, a terrible beauty is born. Herein lies empathy, barreling adventure and an iconic heroine, Jamie Tuff." Charles Bane Jr., nominee as Poet Laureate of Florida.
