Considering this book isn’t for me (I’m almost 28 and this is a middle grade book) I was blown away how well I think this book covered so many relevant and poignant topics. While it didn’t give me much new insight or thoughts, I did think it was a beautifully told story that left me feeling hopeful. I will definitely be giving my daughter this book when she is older because I wish I had of read more books like this when I was in school.
