A sweet book that introduces grief at a first grade reading level. It illustrates the changes in sorrow and cheerfulness and how a friend can help. #underthedustcover

Okay, at first I felt a little silly reading a book about a bunch of middle schoolers. But this book was really good. It was sad, funny, heartbreaking, and happy all at once. I agree with August Pullman, everyone in the world should get a standing ovation at least once in their life. I‘m so happy to “see” Auggie get his standing ovation.
#choosekind my 11-yr old asked me to read this because she is reading it & thought it was good. It is good. And sad, and heartbreaking. I told her I‘m glad I read it, but reading it once is enough, but that it‘s probably a good idea of what middle school is all about. The kids are mean, trying to figure out who they want to be, but that you can always be kind and stay true to you.
I resisted this for some stupid reason, I was recommended to read this by a dear friend and I told her I would think about it. Instead, I inquired with Libby as to availability. In fact, I felt rather guilty that I displayed such a lack of enthusiasm to my friend that I immediately requested eBook and/or audio.
The audio is fantastic! I enjoyed this so much!! I laughed, I cried, I wanted to hug all the characters 🤣

I adored this picture book. It has beautiful messages about community, sharing, and gratitude. It‘s the picture book selection for Charlotte Mecklenburg Library‘s 2024 Community Reads program.
I can‘t explain why but I picked this up yesterday and now I need to read the whole series.
