Description: "Eight-year-old Jamie Reed closes her eyes in the hospital and reopens them in a forest of birch trees. From behind a tree pops a miniature sort of cow with a small antler at her forehead, who introduces herself as Mrs. Tipperwillow. On that first golden day in the spirit world, Jamie meets four new friends near her own age and learns that in Summerland there are no limits to what is possible. You can fly, eat anything you want (and it will always be good for you) and create, do and be anything you can imagine. In Mrs. Tipperwillow's care, the children discover friendship, fun, comfort and the answers to their most heartfelt questions about life and afterlife."--Back cover.
