This profound little volume is not just for kids. It is for everyone. Drawing from her own experiences after her husband's death, MacLachlan crafts a story for all of us. We meet Fiona and Finn as they deal with the grief of losing their father in a tragic accident. A man who was one of their father's patients asks Fiona if he can call her once each week for two minutes to share memories of her father. Through these phone calls and the experiences the kids have volunteering at the local animal shelter, we see them remembering their father and we get to know him too and grieve with them. Don't overlook this book because of its juvenile status. It is so much more than that!
