Reviews

This heartbreakingly beautiful book troubles the terrain, unforgettably challenging our stereotypes of 'bad girls' who become delinquent. Sprott and Doob persuasively make the case that the justice system treats girls differently, and that the treatment - for those who enter the system - is unfair, damaging, and unsuccessful. But they also present a remarkably hopeful constellation of opportunities to do less harm. - Bernadine Dohrn, Northwestern University School of Law
