Reviews
"As in his previous novels, Curtis is a master at balancing the serious and the lighthearted... His latest book is another natural award candidate and makes an excellent case, in a story positively brimming with both truth and sense, for the ability of historical fiction to bring history to life." -- New York Times Book Review "Here's a pre-Civil War history lesson wrapped in an adventure story." -- USA Today "Curtis has created a vivid setting that is easy to imagine. When the action begins, you'll want to race through the pages." -- The Washington Post * "This is Curtis's best novel yet, and no doubt many readers, young and old, will finish and say, 'This is one of the best books I have ever read.'" -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review * "Many readers drawn to the book by humor will find themselves, at times, on the edges of their seats in suspense and, at others, moved to tears. A fine, original novel from a gifted storyteller." -- Booklist , starred review * "This arresting, surprising novel of reluctant heroism is about nothing less than nobility." -- The Horn Book , starred review * "Curtis's talent for dealing with painful periods of history with grace and sensitivity is as strong as ever." -- School Library Journal , starred review "Elijah of Buxton is sure to become a classic -- for readers of all ages." -- BookPage "The Newbery Medal judges should just go ahead and put Christopher Paul Curtis on speed dial." -- The Christian Science Monitor "Curtis is a genius storyteller..." -- Detroit Free Press, "As in his previous novels, Curtis is a master at balancing the serious and the lighthearted...
