PRAISE FOR Inside Out and Back Again: "Open this book, read it slowly to savor the delicious language. This is a book that asks the reader to be careful, to pay attention, to sigh at the end." -- Kathi Appelt, bestselling author of Newbery Honor Book The Underneath "In this poignant, funny, and unforgettable novel, Thanhha Lai shares in verse how her family escaped Vietnam before the fall of Saigon. American and Vietnamese characters alike leap to life through the voice and eyes of a ten-year-old girl--a protagonist so strong, loving, and vivid I longed to hand her a wedge of freshly cut papaya. This tenderly told tale transports readers to the time immediately after the Vietnam War and also opens hearts to newcomers displaced by war today." -- Mitali Perkins, author of Bamboo People "Based in Li's personal experience, this first novel captures a child-refugee's struggle with rare honesty. Written in accessible, short free-verse poems, Hà's immediate narrative describes her mistakes--both humorous and heartbreaking; and readers will be moved by Hà's sorrow as they recognize the anguish of being the outcast." -- Booklist (starred review) "The taut portrayal of Hà's emotional life is especially poignant as she cycles from feeling smart in Vietnam to struggling in the States, and finally regains academic and social confidence. An incisive portrait of human resilience." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "An enlightening, poignant and unexpectedly funny novel in verse is rooted in the author's childhood experiences. In her not-to-be-missed debut, Li evokes a distinct time and place and presents a complex, realistic heroine whom readers will recognize, even if they haven't found themselves in a strange new country." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Ha's voice is full of humor and hope." -- School Library Journal (starred review) "Li 's spare language captures the sensory disorientation of changing cultures as well as a refugee's complex emotions and kaleidoscopic loyalties." -- The Horn Book "In this free-verse narrative, Lai is sparing in her details, painting big pictures with few words and evoking abundant visuals." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Told in compelling free verse." -- Brightly
