Praise:
At McNally Robinson Booksellers, they give kids and teens the opportunity to be Two Thumbs Up reviewers, and one of them by the name of Sophia has high praise for Nina Berkhout’s The Mosaic, which she says is “an engaging artful novel.” She further writes, “Full of loving descriptions of American Prairie, and moving stories of soldiers living with the after effects of war, this book really makes you think. Realistic portrayal of human emotions and the painstaking process of creating art, both take center stage in this heartbreaking read. Avid readers will finish this book in a matter of days. Maybe one of the best books I’ve ever read.”
