    <![CDATA[When T.J. and her family are forced to move from their farm to the Newford suburbs, she makes an unexpected new friend—Elizabeth, a punked-out teen runaway with a big attitude—who also happens to be a “Little,” standing just six inches tall. Her family lives inside the walls of T.J.’s house. T.J. and Elizabeth soon forge a prickly friendship that’s put to the test when each girl finds herself in dangerous territory, without any way to help the other. Both have to learn the hard way whom to trust, and how to rely on their instincts and find kindred spirits. <em>Little (Grrl) Lost</em> is Charles de Lint at his captivating best.<br/><br/>&quot;The [Newford] books have all been written in such a way that you should be able to pick up any one and get a full and complete story. However, characters do reoccur, off center stage as it were, and their stories do follow a sequence.&quot; ]]>

    <![CDATA[When fourteen-year-old TJ and her family are forced to move from their farm to the suburbs she has to give up her beloved horse, Red, but she makes a surprising new friend. Elizabeth is a Little, a six-inch-high punked-out teen with an attitude, who has run away from home to make her way in the world. TJ and Elizabeth&#151;the Big and the Little&#151;soon become friends, but each quickly finds herself in a truly life-threatening situation, and they are unable to help each other. <em>Little (Grrl) Lost</em> is a delightful combination of realism, magic, humor, and hope, and is sure to win Charles de Lint many new teen and adult fans.<br/><br/>&quot;The [Newford] books have all been written in such a way that you should be able to pick up any one and get a full and complete story. However, characters do reoccur, off center stage as it were, and their stories do follow a sequence.&quot; ]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I had high hopes for this book, because THE BLUE GIRL was one of my favorite reads a few years back and this looked to be more of the same. And on many levels it was: there are plenty of cool characters, lots of the little details that make the Newford setting so vivid, and De Lint's delightful pros...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/48860150">more...</a>]]></body>
