I so wish I had read this book a child. Having seen the movie, I can appreciate the adaptation, but it was a bit misleading. I went into reading the book thinking the "magic" would be real, but in a way, I'm glad it wasn't. The story was equally wholesome and heartbreaking, and I'm still recovering from it.
