PRAISE FOR THIS FULL HOUSE: “An audacious and rewarding finale in the unparalleled MAKE LEMONADE sequence, there’s room in THIS FULL HOUSE for any reader to find a home.”―New York Times bestselling author Gregory Maguire “Once again, Virginia Euwer Wolff manages to write with such intensity, leading to such grace. This trilogy is a masterpiece, and this book is full of hard-earned beauty. Consider me amazed.”―New York Times bestselling author David Levithan “LaVaughn’s desire to make a difference in the lives of her friends is the strong voice that carries this story . . . an exploration on how easy it is to love yet how difficult it can be to forgive. A fitting and optimistic end to the trilogy.”―VOYA “A memorable tale of family, friendship, conscience and tenacity.”―BookPage “Wolff’s lyrical free verse once again breathes life into her unforgettable heroine.”―The Horn Book “LaVaughn’s ferocious determination and intelligence will wholly captivate readers, as will her beautifully articulated, elemental questions about integrity, faith, and how best to build a life.”―ALA Booklist “I couldn’t wait to find out what happened, and then wanted to go right on reading about these thoughtful, quirky, splendid characters.
