-The New York Times Book Review
'Friedman expertly weaves the major facts of the Civil War into her narrative, always returning to Lula's experiences as a touchstone.By focusing on Lula and her doll-the 'silent witness' of the title-the grand sweep of history is placed very firmly and humanely within the grasp of young readers.
-Kirkus Reviews 'Friedman's economical text clearly shows how the Civil War touched the life of a young child.
-School Library Journal How I Survived My Summer Vacation: And Lived to Write the Story
'Friedman's comic timing along with her insights are what readers will remember.
-Publishers Weekly 'Jackie's tantalizing first lines introduce each chapter, while his witty, fast-paced narrative relates the silly and serious episodes.The exaggerated characters and broad humor have a cinematic quality. Like an old 1950s comedy, this first novel is entertaining summer reading.
