Accolades for Mattie Weaver:

“A captivating story. The sweet relationship between Mattie and Pie (her grandfather) is a powerful model for children who may not have experienced a safe, sheltering and empowering love.

A great book to read as a family or to a classroom with discussion. The author kept me guessing and surprised me at every turn. A delightful and intriguing read.
