It was an awesome book. It mixed two different worlds aristocrat and low-class. It's a book of happiness and saddness. It's a great book of love and happiness. But it's also a book of independecein a new world. A great book for girls from the ages of 12 to 100 a great book for all.
Good Book!

This is a very well thought out and nicely written book, which i would recommend to anyone, particularly girls. The main character Aggie is realistic and the events in the novel are both exciting and thought provoking. It has a bit of romance for all those of us who like that. I think you should definitely check it out, its by a great Canadian author, and set in Toronto in the 1930's.
