She prefers to look right at the things nobody else can bear to mention: for example, the fact that her beloved older sister is dead, pushed in front of a train by a man still on the loose. Her grief-stricken parents have basically been sleepwalking ever since, and it is Mathilda's sworn mission to shock them back to life. Her strategy? Being bad. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMathilda decides she's going to figure out what lies behind the catastrophe. She starts sleuthing through her sister's most secret possessions--e-mails, clothes, notebooks, whatever her determination and craftiness can ferret out. But she must risk a great deal--in fact, she has to leave behind everything she loves--in order to discover the truth. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eStartling, funny, touching, odd, truthful, page-turning, and, in the end, heartbreaking, \u003ci\u003eMathilda Savitch \u003c\/i\u003eis an extraordinary debut.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/05\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312430030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.40w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/28\/2010 pg. 19\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e133082 \/ Mathilda Savitch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Victor Lodato","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43361403437237,"sku":"9780312430030","price":18.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_262a566b-5034-4352-bdc9-668550874fbb.jpg?v=1701189571","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/mathilda-savitch-9780312430030","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
