Customer Reviews

Lovely story with an important message

Good length for a bed time story for my three year old daughter. I love the rhyming text and the illustrations are beautiful. Important message about perseverance that has provoked good discussions.

Magically Moving

As a believer in the power of poetic word minimalization, this book captures the complexity of life's hardships in a clever, rhythmic framework. The author has clearly come to grips with the cycle of possession, loss, and rebuilding through the eyes of a child; something we can all relate to. Sometimes the best lessons are the simplest ones, and this book paints a critically important lesson, both through the written words and the beautiful illustrations.
