The topics addressed will resonate with all teens in some way, alerting them to the truth of our emerging world. * Reading Time *The author throws in many topics for older teenagers including racism, sexuality, gender equality, and coercive control in relationships. Family relationships and the difficulties during adolescence are also interwoven in the narrative. A mature teenager will find something in this story to make them think. * The School Librarian *The conceit behind Shusterman’s latest is truly unique. While it exhibits the author’s usual storytelling aplomb, it also manages to delve into more serious and timely subject matter, such as racism, sexism, and homophobia. Despite these heavy topics, the story still moves at a lively pace and, thanks to a zany sci-fi twist, manages to pack in a few laughs as well. * Booklist *

Ming learns quite a bit about the army as he plays with the general, but there is even more detailed information included as well, separated from the main text by a distinctive font. The artwork is lovely, bringing the clay figures to life and capturing the intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms. Really wonderful book to introduce children to this archaeological wonder and get them excited about their next trip to the museum!" —AllDoneMonkey.com blog
