(4) 4-6 Eleven-year-old girl Claude is suspicious when everyone in Sunset Park gets involved in raising money for a hospitalized girl no one has met but whose letters and poems crop up around her Brooklyn neighborhood. Claude is a lovable protagonist, but the book is torn between being a gritty crime story and a mystery kids can truly solve on their own.
