Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

. "Children will come away thinking they have heard something quite profound about love, fear, and hope for the future."

- Booklist (starred review)

Eddie Beckey makes lists for just about everything and everyone in her life. And for matters of real importance, she wears (and snaps) an array of colored rubber bands on her wrist. Unfortunately, the world is not always so orderly and knowable. No list can help her cope with what's happening to her best friend, Sally - or change the course of things for Sally's grandmother, whom Eddie has grown to love and depend on as well. With subtlety and insight, novelist Alison McGhee tells the story of a young girl's first encounter with grief, and of the enduring power of friendship.

Synopsis:

Now available in paperback. With subtlety and insight, the author of "Shadow Baby" tells the story of a young girl's first encounter with grief, and of the enduring power of friendship as she learns something about lasting ties.
