It is a really good story and I love how Deza's problems are what really happened. It just sad what happens when they settled and they are having a really good time then something terrible happens. Things keep happening to the poor dad. But Deza is a strong girl and she can handle stuff like that. The ending is amazing.

I really loved this book because it incuraged me to never give up. I really thought that was a very important part of the book because the Malone family is doing everything they can to help one another even in tough times. This book kept me on my feet the whole way through!

Parents I believe this is a phenomenal book. The author of this book did a beyond great job writing this book. I was able to place myself in bits and pieces of this book, and parents that is something you want your children to do when they are reading a book. I totally recommend this book to anyone to read. Not just parents, but anyone. You will laugh, and even cry sometimes. Children go through a lot of different things and circumstances in their lives including poverty. This is a great eye opener book parents. And it is also an easy read.

Might Miss Malone (or MMM as I like to call it) is really nice and Deza is a very sweet girl and is always defending her older yet shorter brother!

i really liked this book because it told you this story about this family with their own unique talent and what they went through but they all went through it together. I liked Jimmie the best because he did whatever he could to help his family. The book was a little confusing at times but overall it was very good.

This is a okay book and i did not read it all because it was borning but overall i agree with bookloverd3

Fun fact: this book has been nominated for the silver birch award (an award for the best novels for a pre-teen / young teenager of their category). . . . . . . .

I loved this book! My favorite character is Jimmie. He's my favorite because even though he lacks an education, he does all he can to hep his family, even if it means lying to them.

Cool Author Fact: When CHRISTOPHER PAUL CURTIS graduated high school, he joined a theatrical/musical group called Suitcase Theatre and toured Germany, France, Canada and the U.S.

The Mighty Miss Malone was a very interesting book. My favourite part of the book was when Deza and her Mother found their father and brought him home. I really enjoyed this part because you finally know that the Malone family was going to be okay if Jimmie continued to send money for them. One thing I thought that the author, Christopher Paul Curtis, could change, was how the book was so long. I also thought that the book should have a main idea that is more clear. It seems to me that Deza has a series of small problems that get solved instead of one big problem like most of the other story’s that I read. But I think that the author made the story with small problems so that the book is more realistic like everyday life that people can relate to.
