The sequel to Mim and the Klan, this book captures the elements of young people struggling to understand one another and themselves.  Set in an agrarian Quaker county in northern Indiana, principles of Quaker tradition and the energy of youth come together.  The story carries good complexity in several dimensions.

The story, as ingeniously crafted by Ms. Stanley Russell, provides a metaphor for understanding our present time and its deeply divided agendas of power politics and human beings trying to live their lives in peace...John Bryant, Plainfield, Indiana
