Reseña del libro "Living In Secret 25th Anniversary Updated Edition: "suspenseful, sensitively written" LA Times (en Inglés)"
This 25 year Anniversary Edition of the beloved, groundbreaking 'Living In Secret' featuring Amelia Monet is updated to synchronize with its contemporary companions in the 'Gathering The Dreamcatchers' series where the lives of Amelia, family, and friends continue to unfold. Ever since Amelia's parents got divorced, she has wanted to live with her mother and her mother's girlfriend, Janey, but a judge gave her father custody. Finally, after years of living apart, Amelia, and her mom decide there is only one thing to do. On a cold October night, Amelia's mother comes to steal her away. For Amelia, living in secret means changing her name, not going to school, and pretending she is twelve instead of eleven. The adventure of beginning a whole new life with brand new family and friends is marred only by the shadow of a past that could shatter the present in an instant, should anyone find out who Amelia really is. Called "courageous, thought-provoking" by Publishers Weekly, "a viable mirror for children in rainbow families" by Rainbow Family Collections, and "crafted with insight and skill" by the official Kirkus Reviews, online readers have also reviewed it as: "Once I started, I couldn't stop" and "read it 3 times...loved it every time!" This special edition of this story which is now part of the 'Gathering The Dreamcatchers' companion novel series also includes a sampling of chapters from the next foundational book underpinning the series: 'The Skin of Water/Defending The Dreamcatchers.'
