What Parents Need to Know
About Room One: a mystery or two
Parents need to know that there is nothing to be concerned about here, and much to admire: a main character, and an entire town (including the adults, a rarity in children's books), who are kind, thoughtful, and determined to help others with no though of return, though they do get a karmic payback.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Ted and his town. Are there really places like this? Can people be like this? Why or why not? Also, does the lack of a villain or bad people make the story less interesting? Are they necessary to make a story?
