Summary: FYI - All those "The Power of One" Lovers
Comment: After reading a few reviews of the book I simply adore, I found that it might help if you all knew that the later editions of "The Power of One" and "Tandia" have been re-edited!! Lots of minor details not really relating to the storyline have been cut out. Since I read these 2 books at least once a year and have bought later editions as well, I realised that some stories are missing... An example from "Tandia": How Peekay obtained the doll for Carmen, or How Ms. Smith was employed, etc., etc. It these minor details that make the book even more charming and heart warming... If you get the chance, see if you can get hold of an earlier edition. It's worth it!

Summary: What a great ride!
Comment: I too am shocked I missed this when it came out! This is an uplifting book that follows a young boy who does not feel there are differences in people based on color. However the world in the 1930's, 40's, 50's, and beyond... is different and he knows he must somehow adapt to survive. He belives in the power of himself, in his dignity, in humankind's dignity. This belief becomes a ripple effect to cause smalll but significant changes in the link of oppresion. If you like sports- you will like this book. If you like good conquering evil- you will like this book. If you like great writing and history- you will like this book.

Summary: THE BEST MANDATORY READING-- EVER!
Comment: From the unconventional mother role, to the silent friendship Peekay has extremely unique relationships with others throughout his life. His rare connections to others makes him a boy who matured at a young age into an independent man. His independence from others makes him loyal to his dreams and a success. In the mist of obstacles, the power of one is ultimately unbreakable in the story of Peekay's life.
