This book was a short and sweet look at how a family grieves through the lense of an 11 year old girl who lost her mother. Her perspective was very realistic and the way she related to her dad made my heart ache and yearn for their healing. I don't know anything about squash, but maybe if you do it will help you appreciate the book a bit more.
