One Potato Review
A big fat advisory here. This is a story about the death of a child, and it’s unflinching. This reader as never seen anything like it for children, but there are possibly people - young and old - who are weary from reading about silver linings when it comes to the death of a loved one. Here is a book that offers at least the promise of a shared - if unimaginable - experience.
