CLEMENTINE'S LETTER, by Sara Pennypacker


CLEMENTINE'S LETTER
by Sara Pennypacker
Hyperion Press

Okay, fine. I will sacrifice a paperback to the sequel gods tonight. Which is a roundabout way of announcing that despite my weapons-grade case of Sequel Prejudice, Sara Pennypacker's Clementine still has what it takes to make my day.

Is Clementine's Letter more of the same? Well yeah, to a certain extent. But when you consider how good the first (and second) Clementine books are, who the heck cares? Someday the fun may wear off, but until then, thumbs way, way up.
