Sometimes You Fly by Katherine Applegate
5.0
Sometimes you Fly would make a great graduation gift, similar to ‘Oh the Places you’ll go”. It’s a look at life from all the lessons we learn to where we go. This does have graduation in the end, so I think it was meant to be that way. I did get ‘Oh the Places you’ll go’ for a graduation gift and I loved it then. This is another good one to get. Dr. Seuss is better, this is a second one.
The watercolors are beautiful and it does feel like a hazy sort of memory to have of life. There are lots of bumps and opps in these pages and life moves forward.
I love Katherine Applegate. I know here as a middle grade author and I have read and loved Wishtree, Ivan and me. When I saw she wrote this, I had to pick this up. I'm glad I got it before the library shut down.
I went ahead and read this to the nephew and he wasn’t that impressed by it, but I’m keeping this in mind and I’ll give it to him later when he can appreciate it more. He did think some of the things with children and babies were funny and the situations there were in like a broken vase or spilled food was funny. There isn’t much action so he gave this 2 stars. I think he will appreciate it in 8 years.
