What are People Saying About White Bird?
“I was captivated by White Bird. It tells the hardest truths with honesty and calm (so that young readers can hear them). R. J. Palacio brings to life the nature of heroism and the real risks we face today.” —Meg Medina, Newbery award-winning author of Mercy Suarez Changes Gears
“At once expressive and chaste, an elusive but ideal combination.” —New York Times
“A story that shows the impact of the Second World War and the rise of fascism on what had been a pastoral, fairy-tale childhood, with White Bird pulling no punches in connecting that historical moment to what’s happening in the world today.” —The Hollywood Reporter
“Extraordinarily powerful.” —Forbes
