Alice feels like she doesn’t fit in
anywhere. Her parents are constantly shipping
her to different schools and never seem to have time for her. Kids her age treat her like she is weird and
Alice feels big and has large curly untamable hair. Then there is Millie, she is a bigfoot-well a
little bigfoot, and she is always wondering about the human world and wishes
she could experience some of the things she has seen on the Internet. When Alice is sent to a boarding school in
the woods, Alice and Millie’s worlds collide.
I enjoyed this book. It is fun to
think about how our world would look to others and to imagine a community of
bigfoots living in the woods. The theme
of not feeling like you fit in is explored well and the characters are likable.
