Selected by Indie Booksellers for the January 2009 Indie Notables“Exuberant, childlike, brain-damaged, Margaret has been, alternately, the joy and bane of her sister's life (although she'd never say so). Painting this world with a mixture of grace, humor, and heartbreaking accuracy, Dougan opens a window into an unfamiliar world for some, and will hugely entertain all of us.”
-- Betsy Burton, The King's English, Salt Lake City, UT
