Very thoughtful book. A great read for the New Year. It gave me directions to make my life more meaningful without being sappy or impossible. Try it. You'll find joy and peace where you least expect it.
Such a fascinating book! Who knew there were so many choices. Lively reading and a real conversation starter. I was asking everyone I knew if they had heard or one method or another to handle the loss of a loved one. I lost my father this year and this was wonderful, funny, poignant, and completely captivating. Great to share.

Uri Shulevitz has done it again. He creates the most beautiful books. This wonderful story comes from his own life. It is charming and haunting. I just want to runaway into the pictures. Truly a delight.

Zilpha Keatley Snyder is a wonderful writer. This is her latest book. A wonderful adventure and a fresh look at Shakespeare all in one. If you haven't read her before you can start with this one. It is wonderful and will leave you wanting to read everything she has written.
