Maybe it hit me at the right time -- I'm dealing with some bullying issues at the middle school where I teach. I loved that there was a girl who was hurting, and still stood up to the meaness.</p>

I'm not really a fan of poetry so I didn't feel comfortable assessing it though I wondered how her love of poetry affected how she viewed life.</p>Miss Print commented on '<i>The Sweet Revenge of Celia Door</i> -- Karen Finneyfrock'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8345169e469e2017ee8ae27ea970d2013-02-23T04:48:37Z2013-02-23T04:48:37ZMiss Printhttp://missprint.wordpress.comI've been excited about this one since I saw the cover online.
