I want to start with a thank you to Quill Tree Books, Jane Kuo, and Storygram for letting me read this wonderful book.
This was the very sweetest, most lyrical, and most emotional book I have read this year. It had me smiling, crying, and laughing throughout. I think everyone needs to read this, especially the middle graders. I think they will get a lot out of this and I will be sending a copy of this to my niece. I would check TW/CW before reading this and letting the young one read it. I can't wait to read more from Jane Kuo.
