Dancing at the Pity Party by Tyler Feder

emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.5

A beautiful tribute to her mother and a very personal story about grief and losing a parent.  I have experienced loss, but nothing quite like losing a mother so suddenly.  I try to think of death as more mundane than scary, and this book is a great way to start thinking about death and grief in terms of what I'll call a realistic optimism.

The art was cute and expressive and detailed and I loved the fact that the more vibrant and pastel color palettes are juxtaposed with the heavy themes of death, disease, grief.
