Reads as a relatively simple book but isn’t. I know I’ll be thinking about this book, it’s characters, and it’s commentary on our natural world for a long time. Really and truly loved these characters—Gil, the family he moves next to, the the friends he finds and keeps—and I’m sad to part with them.
