What distinguishes a friend from an enemy is a complicated affair for 12-year-old Phoebe as she tries to understand the hurtful behavior of Serena, a girl who is taunting her. By contrast, four-year-old Peter Philby, who is missing from the DUMBO area of Brooklyn, knows exactly what a bully is. It's on his mind all the time. What he doesnt know is that a girl hes never met will change the outcome of his ordeal.

Industry Reviews

Named one of *The Year's Best* by Resource Links

'A lot happens in this story - the mystery, Phoebe and her friends creating a history project, the man next door who puts signs in his window to communicate, and a girl who can't hear or speak who works at a restaurant where Phoebe and her grandma go a lot. How does all this go together? You just have to read it to find out! I think kids around the ages of 10 to 13 would like "8 Days in DUMBO" by Margaret J. McMaster. It's a fun story and full of action and adventure.' Reviewed by Maddie (age 12) for Reader Views Kids

'Phoebe, herself, is a delightful character: smart, funny, clever, forgiving, and just a genuinely good person." Recommended. CM: Canadian Review of Materials

'Margaret McMaster has penned an easy-read, suitable for students in upper elementary and middle school. The author keeps readers engaged in the story, and certainly wanting to solve the mystery, find the missing child, and even learn what secret Serena has. There is lots of adventure and antics happening in 8 Days in DUMBO, portraying the complexity of life found in reality.' Resource Links, Dec. 2019 Issue
