Despite being an adult in my mid-thirties now, I still LOVE to pick up children's books, young adult, etc. I first heard of the book just by visiting my library last summer and I was caught by the title, places the book on hold and couldn't wait for my turn to pick up a copy. Once I finally got home with it, I instantly began flipping through the pages and saw how gorgeous of a book it truly is. The glossy pages and how they stuck together from stick being a newer copy, the smell. Of the book was just a book lover's dream candle, and then the artwork was just stunning. I felt a little silly at first feeling like I'm reading a children's picture type book, but it took my by surprise and it was an amazing tale describing the UPS and downs in the stages of grief one must experience to fully understand, and accept the reality of the situation. I must admit I purposely did not return this book on time to the library because I wasn't ready to part with my copy of it because of it's beauty.

I'm glad I came across this book on the Play Store (considering I only had a dollar left). It holds a touching story, and is filled with plenty of emotions and scenarios that some of us can relate to; facing reality. A beautifully written story, and overall a great read. ( ╹▽╹ )
