"Veena and I’d been best friends for five years. Sure, I knew other kids, but I’d never hung out with anyone else. I’ve never been good at going up to kids and starting conversations. Or phoning them. What would I say?.. Veena, she understood me. She liked me, quiet and all. And she never freaked out about my spiders."

Editorial Reviews
Review
" . . . a believable story about growing up." - Baltimore’s Child, Baltimore, Maryland "The style of this book is perfect for children in Grades 2 through 4. The dialogue and expressions are natural and honest with just the right touch of humor. Maisie is a model of independence and self-awareness, and her gentle and thoughtful nature make her a very endearing narrator -- she thinks, acts, and speaks as a typical 9-year-old. . . belongs in every library collection." - Canadian Book Review Annual "Written at a grade-three reading level, Fangs and Me has 50 pages divided into ten chapters and eight black-and-white illustrations. . . Rachna Gilmore succeeds in creating a believable tale about a girl who has trouble making friends. . . Gilmore handles her characters with deftness and creates a plot line that will be interesting to young readers. - Canadian Children's Literature, Summer 2000
