Admittedly, I rarely read children’s books. I will dabble in Young Adult books once in a while but I wanted to listen to something different from a new (to me) author. Friends, when I say I wept – ugh, I wept. I was quickly taken back to my middle school and high school days and all the fun and hard memories of friendships starting and, inevitably, ending. I lost a friend shortly after I graduated high school and had so many of the same thoughts and feelings as Sage. This short book of poems took me through every emotion from grief to happiness to anxiety to sadness and everything in between. A lovely short read that could be great for older children after loss.
