Such a sad story. This book has a big lesson and talks about a big topic, but it is great story about family and memories!

What a beautiful little book. I read this one because I'm going to be doing book clubs with my kids and this book is one that one group will be reading. I'm so excited to see how this book will affect my 9-year-olds because it definitely affected me.

I've read this book so many times and just reread it years later. It will always be one of my favorites.

This book is beautiful. There's a lot of emotion in few words, yet the book's focus, to me, is wondrous words. The characters are individual and real. We love them all. It's a book contained in a short time and long memory, in a small place with a big sky, in few words yet in many thoughts.

Very poetical so if you don't like that you probably won't like this. It's sad and it's light and it's spring-y. I don't love it but it's well-written and it's something quick to pick up and skim. Very sweet.
