Meet Kirsten: An American Girl by Janet Beeler Shaw
4.0

Kirsten was a series I never read when I was younger (but I was totally familiar with her because her Christmas look is ICONIC).

I read this one with a student, and it is so lovely. We just read a couple of Josefina books, and the way grief is handled is so different from those books. It's interesting to see the difference.

Also, the illustrations are lovely. They are so soft and beautiful.
