The story of a two children displaced from the city and forced to adapt to a new home and all the challenges that this brings (including a menagerie of animals), from a multi-award-winning author.Carnegie and Newbery medal-winner Creech has a magic touchShe writes simply and directly (in this novel, largely in blank
verse), yet her unshowy language is transporting and charged with emotion.... It's delightful and infused with understanding of how young and old might behave and feel.
Touches on themes of loss, friendship, and belonging in this appealing tale...fans of Love That Dog (2001) and Hate That Cat (2010) will find much to love in this story of a girl, a cow, and so much more.' * Kirkus Reviews *
