    FROM SARAH:

    My now-21yo art student names this one the best book of her childhood. Set in 19th century France, this is a story of a bold girl, a fearful man, and a friendship forged during hard times. Beautiful. Worth owning!

    FROM THE PUBLISHER:

    One day, a mysterious stranger arrives at the boardinghouse where Mirette lives with her mother, and her life is never the same. This remains my teenage daughter Allison's very favorite picture book.
