Reviews:

"The Sammy Keyes series keeps getting better and better. In the seventh title in the series, a frightened teen at a video arcade asks Samantha to hold a package for her. When the girl disappears, Sammy finds that she's now responsible for a baby!...Despite the light tone of Van Draanen's writing and Tara Sands' cheerfully cherubic performance, the book deals with hard issuees - gangs, teen pregnancy, domestic abuse - and handles them with honesty. Sands maintains momentum as she shifts from Sammy and her classmates to Hispanic gang members, from the ill-tempered Officer Borsch to prying Mrs. Wedgewood." - AudioFile
