Beautiful Story

This is a very moving story. I had tears in my eyes, and I'm not a kid...so I'd recommend this book for adults too. It would make a great story for parents to read to kids as well. It's set in Italy, has beautiful watercolor illustrations. It teaches about love and trust and how those can be rebuilt.

beautifully written and intelligent

The text flows smoothly and gives the reader a descriptive picture of the surroundings and the feelings of the Tuscan area and the attachment of the people to their land and home. The beautiful illustrations help the reader to understand and view the beautiful colors of the Tuscan area.
