Evaluation
This book certainly has a Winn Dixie like approach. In fact, in many ways, it reminded me of Winn Dixie. It was not the dog that gave it the striking resemblance but rather this theme that sometimes we cannot keep everything we love near to us. Sometimes, we have to let it fly away. Multiple stories are presented and wrapped up into one. The characters in this book are dynamic and bring about excellent character traits to discuss. A really thought-provoking story that you never want to end.
