Advance Praise
"A fantastic read! I really enjoyed the book and I especially enjoyed the character of Sketch who is still making me think! I bought this book in order to recommend some new books for my school library. I already have 10 students with their names down to read it after I posted my book review in the school library magazine. I strongly recommend the book for young people and adults! I loved the fact that I got to escape my own life for a while and see the world through Sketch's eyes. A must read!"
"Original ideas, loveable characters, a great read. Thoroughly enjoyed it and looking forward to the next book in the series."
"Quirky, modern & really easy to read."

A lovely read, something new and different from a lot of the stuff I read. I found it entertaining, kept me involved and interested. The characters and well written and relatable. It’s a really fun read.

This book was an interesting look at how the world and social situations must look from the outside in. I loved the naivete of the narrator as she discovers more about those she had been observing. This book was a very swift read and very easy to understand.
One of the key things i most enjoyed about the book was the ability to build community at any age. The main character was young and yet she worked to learn more about the seniors, was patient with them, and gave them the ability to find confidence and connections with the younger members.
This was only a small part of this book, but it was probably the part I enjoyed the most.

I enjoyed this book and even recommended it to some friends, including some who have children who are reading teen/young adult books set in the science fiction/fantasy realm already. This book really made me think and I found the characters intriguing.

Ah, the book was indeed very cute, I really enjoyed it and also Sketch is a really nice character too! I recommend the book to all young people (and not only!) who enjoy a nice, cosy reading and a world seen through the eyes of an original character!

This was an enjoyable easy read, with likeable characters and an unusual idea. I bought the sequel Stuck in your World, after reading this book, and now await the next installment!
