Another great book in the series!

If your collecting the 'Dear America' series, you can't forget to add this one to your collection! It's not easy being blind, as you will learn in this book. I liked how the author ended the last entry in the book... so neat! A must have for a 'Dear America' fan!

A Very Interesting Story

Bess Brennan was blinded in a sledding accident and is now trying to adjust to live as things are now. Its very difficult adjustment as you'd expect. Bess goes to Perkins School, a school for the blind. A very interesting and good story.

A Wondeful Story

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall was wonderful! I really enjoyed this book. I had always wondered what it was like to be blind and this book told me. It is hard to be blind, I found out. The book had good details and had a great plot. I would definately recommend it.

One of the Best!

This is a brilliant book about a blind girl. After a sledding accident, docters announce she has lost her sight. She is then sent to Perkins school for the blind. She finds it difficult to adjust, but soon learns many new skills and makes new friends. This book is moving and shows how important sight is. But Bess stays strong, and with the help of new friends, she learns to deal with what has happened to her.

Great Book

I was into this book that I finished this book in less than 1 week. I could picture everything as I read on. If you are looking for a great intersting book, Mirror, Mirror on the Wall is the one for you.

A wonderfully unique new book from the Dear America series.

After she is blinded in a sledding accident, twelve-year-old Bess Brennan's life changes forever. Bess would like to hide in her room forever, but her family forces her to face the world, a world that will never be the same for Bess, ever again. For years, Bess has kept a diary, faithfully writing daily entries. Now, Bess's twin sister Elin must write for her instead. Bess's family decides to send her to the Perkins School for the Blind, where she can learn to live in the world without her sight. This was a really fascinating and unique book in the Dear America series. From reading it, I learned what life might be like for a blind girl in 1932, a girl who had sight for the first twelve years of her life, but suddenly and tragically lost it. I highly recommend this book to fans of the series.
