Sad and hilariously funny, incredibly moving, this story, told from the child's point of view, speaks to all of us. It is a story of family devotion, of nature and people who live with and appreciate the beauty of the natural order, of cultures at odds with each other, of subtle philosophy, of mountain folk and their independence, resourcefulness, and native intelligence. Very highly recommended. Ages 8 to adult. The United States Legislature Game.
