Review:
"The prose is light as gossamer; the story as haunting as a dream." --Kirkus Reviews, starred Kirkus Reviews, Starred "Lyrical, richly descriptive prose ushers readers into a fascinating parallel world inhabited by appealingly quirky characters." -Publishers Weekly, starred Publishers Weekly, Starred "A beautiful novel with an intriguing premise." --School Library Journal, starred School Library Journal, Starred "Lowry succeeds again with this lyrical and compelling story about the importance of memory and the transforming power of love...The gentle blend of wit and pathos will enchant readers." VOYA (Voice of Youth Advocates) "...The novel effectively evokes the flimsy and sometimes tentative grasp on happiness and comfort...and the ways in which darkness can be combated through love." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
