Reviews
“The whole story is suffused in familial love. Tender greens and browns fill the meadow, adding to an overall tone of comforting gentleness. Snails, ladybugs, and other friends are fun to spot along the way. An earnest, utterly sweet look at love.” * Kirkus Reviews * “Highlighting enduring love against the ephemeral, this gentle tale depicts gift-giving as an act that feeds a growing sense of how to attune and connect.” * Publishers Weekkly *
