"A strong sense of purpose, leavened by generous doses of humor and post-World War II period detail, drives this story of a resilient middle-grader who demonstrates that having one hand is an opportunity rather than a handicap. An enjoyable read on the popular theme of overcoming adversity."-"School Library Journal" Norm's inner voice is generally calm, and his jocular exchanges with his friend Leon provide comic relief. "Kids will be fascinated with just how Norm learns to cope, and Norm won't mind a bit if they watch."-"The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books" "Quality writing and a protagonist who will inspire readers and convince them that handicaps are limitations only if you let them be."-"Voice of Youth Advocates"
