The Art of Taxidermy by Sharon Kernot

Your dark eyes
Your dark hair
The ruby lips, the shape
Of your face
Your everything
is hers-
Your mother's.
You are a gift
And a curse.
I can't believe I finished this book so quickly. Once I got used to the style of verse, I just tore through the pages. This is not a long book by any means, but it delivers a rich story nonetheless. I identify with Lottie so much that I felt her anger at her aunt and her helplessness to stop the destruction of the animals.
People deal with death differently. People view death differently. And that's ok.
