Reception

Publishers Weekly, in a starred review of A Song for Ella Grey, wrote "Like Orpheus’s music, Almond’s lyrical narrative will sweep readers on a journey to unearthly, mysterious realms and back. Mythological characters come to life while remaining enigmatic enough to set imaginations spinning."[1] and Kirkus Reviews wrote "Almond brings his hypnotic lyricism to this darkly romantic tale that sings of the madness of youth, the ache of love, and the near-impossibility of grasping death."[2] The Guardian called it "a beautiful book that works on several levels."[3]

A Song for Ella Grey has also been reviewed by Booklist,[4] Voice of Youth Advocates magazine,[4] The Horn Book Magazine,[4] School Library Connection,[4] The School Library Journal,[4] The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books,[5] and The Daily Telegraph.[6]
