About this product

Product Information

Before there was Lois Lowry's The Giver or M. T. Anderson's Feed , there was Robert Cormier's I Am the Cheese , a subversive classic that broke new ground for YA literature.   A boy's search for his father becomes a desperate journey to unlock a secret past. But the past must not be remembered if the boy is to survive. As he searches for the truth that hovers at the edge of his mind, the boy--and readers--arrive at a shattering conclusion.   "An absorbing, even brilliant job. The book is assembled in mosaic fashion: a tiny chip here, a chip there. . . . Everything is related to something else; everything builds and builds to a fearsome climax. . . . [Cormier] has the knack of making horror out of the ordinary, as the masters of suspense know how to do."-- The New York Times Book Review   "A horrifying tale of government corruption, espionage, and counter espionage told by an innocent young victim. . . . The buildup of suspense is terrific."-- School Library Journal , starred review   An ALA Notable Children's Book A School Library Journal Best Book of the Year A Horn Book Fanfare A Library of Congress Children's Book of the Year A Colorado Blue Spruce Young Adult Book Award Nominee From the Trade Paperback edition.

    First time purchase from this seller, and I'd buy from them again. Book was nicely packaged to keep it secure during travel. As a lifelong bibliophile, I appreciate sellers who care about the books they send out. Condition was as described, and I believe that the photo in the listing was the same as the book I received: no stock photo used. Item shipped the same day as purchase, and arrived in 6 days, including a Sunday and a holiday.

    I was quite surprised with how well packaged my item was! It was sealed tightly in it's own plastic bag on top of the plentiful amount of bubble wrap included. It was at a fair price and the cost of shipping was about right for the item. It was in mint condition just as described. The only setback was the shipping being pushed back due to poor weather but this neither the fault of the seller or the shipping company. Otherwise, everything was great and I'm happy with the product!
