Nim's Island — Book Reviews
"A fantasy tale as welcome as a breath of fresh tropical air."
Publisher's Weekly
"Appealingly offbeat tale...Nim, with her unusual associates and just-right mix of self-reliance and vulnerability, makes a character young readers won't soon tire of."
Kirkus Reviews
"Teachers can springboard many geographic or scientific studies off this novel as they read it aloud, but kids can just enjoy the fun."
School Library Journal
"Wendy Orr tweaks coincidence to create a refreshing fantasy tale...With ample doses of suspense and comedy and a pleasingly sappy happily-ever-after ending, the tale portrays the improbable so cleverly that readers will want to believe everything about the likable Nim and her idyllic isle."
