The Little Giant of Aberdeen County by Tiffany Baker immediately draws the reader into the eccentric town of Aberdeen and its residents. The reader's point of view is from Truly who due to her physical appearance suffers repetitive humiliations and yet she is still able to view the world with wonderment, affection, and a deep understanding. Truly and her sister Serena Jane are complete opposites of each other yet their lives intertwine in many ways. I was instantaneously drawn into Aberdeen and found myself fiercely defensive of Truly. Little Giant of Aberdeen County is a novel that will absorb the reader so that you will think of it for hours if not days afterward.
