A fun book - similar vibe to the first one. Relatively light-hearted, didn't get into the heavier grief topics of the first book.

This book was adorable, as was the first Guncle. I love seeing Patrick’s relationship with the kids grow as they all get older. I love how these books balance grief with joy and humor. It feels very relatable, as someone who has experienced a lot of grief.
