My daughter read this book when she was 9 and loved it!

The reading level for this book is posted on the back cover as 4.5, but I really think the content is more appropriate for a teenager or young adult. Even though it would be a very easy book for an older child to read, it just doesn't seem appropriate for ages 9-12.
The book was informative and I enjoyed reading and feeling most of the emotions of the characters.

This is a great "guy" read. It shows young boys that compassion is a good thing and that they can still gain the respect of their friends by making their own choices rather than following the crowd. There is a lot to be learned about pigeons as well. I was amazed about the facts that I did not know as an adult that had been around pigeons all my life.

This book was not at all what I thought it would be. It was part of a summer reading program and I almost didn't use it. Shame on me. The boys did not want to stop reading. The character development was excellent and the finish was both gut wrenching and heart warming. A really great book that I would highly recommend.
