Having one's mother taken suddenly, traumatically, at age twelve is a horrific thing. But Dot's Aunt takes her on a journey of healing and discovery that is just what she needs to come through to the other side of crippling grief.
Told with heart and a realistic adolescent voice, I know my students will find this a lovely book. Top it off with poetry and history and a bit of whimsy, and you've got the makings of a book I want to share with everyone who loves the classic female writers, Wollstonecraft, Shelley, Austen, Wordsworth.
