Another revisit of a childhood favorite that holds up well. I really enjoyed the narrative envelope device as well as the use of oral storytelling. The denouement was a little too tidy for my adult tastes, but all in all a quick and sweet book.
Moderate: Death, Grief, Car accident, and Abandonment
Minor: Mental illness and Death of parent
