Sad, but inspiring and heart-warming.

The opening sentence gave me an immediate impression of Mafalda's voice, as well as her potential strength. I always enjoy a book which explores life through the eyes of a child and would love to have been able to hold onto a hope that I would win a copy. However, that privilege will have to go to other readers because I don't have a device on which to read an eBook - but I will certainly be looking at the reviews when they start to appear!!
