Reviews

Amber Brown’s family is moving from the only home she’s known, and Amber is overwhelmed as she struggles to show her intelligence on standardized tests and to share her father with his new girlfriend. Amber is often told she lacks focus, and her story meanders from one worry to another, with Bokor’s narration seamlessly following her stream of consciousness. But things look better as Amber discovers the class ballroom-dancing project is not nearly as awful as anticipated. Well-chosen music underscores her dance lessons, from tango to swing. Emotions are perfectly pitched as Amber worries over disappointing her parents and laughs as she observes adults’ amusing behavior. The perceptive, plucky voicing of Amber is a delight. Listeners who enjoyed Annie Barrows’ Ivy and Bean series or Sara Pennypacker’s Clementine series will also love Amber Brown.
