About the Author:
Carmen Viviano-Crafts is a contributor for the following Houghton Mifflin Company Title: Gilbert & Sullivan Set Me Free (Economy)
From AudioFile:
Melodies abound throughout this engaging novel based on the actual story of Libby Dodge, a 16-year-old sent to the Sherborn Prison for women in the early 1900s. Carmen Viviano-Crafts brings Libby alive as she finds her place in the prison world, and The Full Cast Family adds just the right spice to the hard-boiled inmates Libby befriends during her time there. Although its setting is dreary, this is a hopeful story, punctuated by bursts of songs by Gilbert and Sullivan as the inmates strive to carry out a production of THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE. Libby and her friends will tug on listeners' heartstrings and make them want to sing along. D.L.M. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
