Loved the fact that this book encourages the reader to go beyond the binary of good/bad and reimagine what their options could be. It's comforting and creative all at once, and opens to door for young minds to ask questions about things they might find troubling or that have been weighing on them. I think this one would be great for slightly older elementary or young middle school ages. ( )
