Firstly - I love the cover. It really showcases how stunning simple art can be. The story itself is a mix of sad and happy and this confuses a little. I like a book to pout me in a certain mood and for me to stay there. This one doesn't feel like it will allow that. It reads well, moving along at different paces in different places. I like though, the endearing heart of the main character is something we should all aspire to.
