From Publishers Weekly

Haddix (Among the Hidden) returns with a short but often informative tale of ordinary girls facing exceptional circumstances. "Could someone be beautiful with ugly hair? Or-no hair?" wonders 10-year old Anya as she confronts her image in her bedroom mirror. When the first small bald patch shows up on Anya's head, it seems like a small thing, but as the bald patches grow and her hair falls out in clumps, she's diagnosed with an auto-immune disease. At first she thinks. "Whatever alopecia areata was couldn't be too bad, because it was such a pretty name.... It should be one of the ladies in King Arthur's court." All too soon, however, she's wearing a wig, and her classmates Keely, Stef, Tonya and Nicole are wondering if she has cancer. Then the unthinkable occurs: her wig falls off during gym, seemingly pulled off by Stef, the most popular (and bossiest) girl in school. The humiliation is almost too much to bear but Keely, usually only too happy to follow Stef's lead, reaches out to her classmate; Anya gains the courage to accept her condition and the joys of unexpected friendship. Haddix successfully chooses two viewpoints, Anya's (victim) and Keely's (observer), to examine the effects of alopecia, but she oversimplifies Anya's and Keely's relationships to the other girls. The examination of the disease and its accompanying medical information, while useful, takes too much precedence over the development of the friendship. Ages 8-12.

This review is from: Because of Anya (Hardcover)
I can totally relate to this book. I have this disease, and I cried through the entire thing. I felt every single emotion described, and I think it's great for kids to read to raise awareness.

This review is from: Because of Anya (Hardcover)
This is a very informative book about alopecia areata from a child's point of view. This is a good book for later elementary children to read. It helps prepare them in advance for what they might have to face, their friends may have to face, or something they are already facing. The book is very well written and put together. Also it helps kids to see they don't have to follow everything that their friends do. Stef tries to boss everybody around, but Keely finally stands up to her. This is a good example for children. It helps children to see that they can be their own individual person and stand up for themselves. It takes you on a journey with Anya from when she first finds out about the disease to later on. You are able to experience her experiences with her as she encounters them. This book would hold a readers attention and appeal to a wide range of readers.
