Reviews:
With an engaging protagonist, a fast-moving story, important themes subtly conveyed, and touches of humor, this is a richly layered story that will have wide appeal. – Kirkus, starred review
Nella’s growing awareness of endings and beginnings, the meaning of friendship, and the power of choices combine to create an unsettling, compelling, and heartwarming tale. – Publishers Weekly, starred review
The several stories of the people in Nella’s life form richly interconnected layers that reflect on life and death, disappointment and forgiveness, sadness and hope… This is a warm, resonant reminder that forgiveness, care, and resolute kindness are at least part of the answer to the problem of life’s fragility.– Bulletin for the Center for Children’s Books
