"'I promise,' I said, getting to my feet. 'Absolutely truly, cross my heart and hope to fly.'" (page 132)
"'There are all different sizes of brave, Truly. There's warrior brave, of course, and there's everyday brave, and everything in between. I happen to think Mr. Abromowitz is right. Your father is one of the bravest people I know. And not just because of what happened in Afghanistan. It's not easy to completely change course in life the way he has-especially when it wasn't his choice. I'm very proud of him.'" (page 246)
"'No worries, Mom. We've got your six.'
That's military-speak for 'We've got your back'." (page 92)
"'Maybe just a few,' I told her, slipping the rest of my cookie to Miss Marple. She promptly spat it onto the floor, and my father gave a hoot of laughter.
'And the reviews are in!' he crowed, sounding almost like his old self. 'Bad sign when the dog won't eat it, True.'" (page 112)
"I shook my head, which was buried in her shoulder, 'It was Dad,' I told her. 'Dad's the one who was brave. He didn't let go, and neither did Calhoun and Lucas.'" (page 346)
";You know, I could have saved myself a whole lot of trouble if I'd just given that envelope to Aunt True in the first place,' I mused to Cha Cha and Jasmine, stepping carefully around a puddle of slush as the three of us made our way downtown after school one afternoon.
'Yeah, but if you had, we might not all be friends.'" (page 352)
"Dad says he still thinks Belinda Winchester is odd, but Aunt True reminded him that while books bring people together, it's people who bring comunities together.
'A community is like a family,' she told him, 'and every family has a few odd ducks. The important thing to remember is that they're still family.'" (page 353)
"I looked over at the picture book displayed on my shelf and thought of the father who takes his child owling.
Which in my case has never happened.
'What if I rewrite the story?' I thought. 'What if in my story, the girl asks her father to go owling instead?'" (page 354)(less)
