Loved this charming story that delves into grief when losing a partner, parent, and friend. Though the subject is dark, the book itself displays the moments of light when grieving and how community, especially family, are there to lift you up if you allow them. 

I listened on audiobook and loved the author's narration, voices for the children, and pacing.
