Maybe they'll address this later, but it really bothers me that they keep saying that birthmothers have a short training period. They're 12...it can't be that short because they're not women yet. I didn't get get my period until I was nearly 13. Come on now.

I'm still not sure if I've read this before. I feel like yes, just because it brings up all these flashes of being in the third grade...but I don't actually remember the story very clearly. It's so weird.

lol, now you can tell this was written in the 90s...remember when poaching was a really big deal? We were like...oh no, poaching...extinction is bad. Save the whales. Stop deforestation. Such innocent times.

I started reading this because I wasn't sure if I read it growing up. I have this vague recollection that we were supposed to read this in seventh grade, but that there weren't enough copies of the book so my class didn't get to read it. But I think it's possible that our librarian read it to us when I was in second or third grade. What's weird is I'm still not sure. (I usually have a sharp memory for these things.)

lol, I'm sorry. I'm reading this on the kindle and the font is all kinds of crazy sizes and words will have hy-phens for no rea-son. What is going on? Don't even get me started on the paragraph breaks.
