(3) 4-6 In some free verse and some loosely rhymed poems, Rosenthal tells the story of her mother Edith's Depression-era childhood in a Jewish family with twelve children. The novel is episodic but gives personalities to the many siblings. Edith's first-person voice is touching and genuine; readers will maintain hope that she someday realize she's more than "just plain Edith / who's number four." Glos.
