How cool that Katherine was here! I’m reading this book now and I love it!! You had a great review and you summed it up so well. You described the characters just as they were portrayed. I can’t stop reading it but I don’t want it to end either. I agree with the 5 star rating!

Thank you so much for this thoughtful, intelligent, terrific review! It’s such a treat to read your kind words and your take on the characters! I hadn’t thought of it in these words before, but it’s so true that “Peter chooses the music every time.” And I love that the boys felt like 3-D characters for you! I really wanted to make them distinct and real–I even tried to differentiate the syllables in their names, just to help people tell them apart. (Alexander got 4 for being the oldest. Toby, a little younger, got 2. And (Baby) Sam got 1!–Just to make each of them as different as possible!!)

I love that the book spoke to you and that you “loved everything about it”!! What an honor! Many, many thanks!
Warmly,
Katherine Center

You make it sound wonderful. I’m going to see if my library carries it. I like books that you can’t put down…this sounds like one of those. Thanks for the review.

This sounds like a great read, Meg. I’ll be looking out for this one.

Have you read Kissing Games of the World, or anything else by Sandi Khan Shelton? I think you’d like her books a lot.

I'll let Rudy know that every time I read a book about a dog, I wind up crying my eyes out! (Please see Marley & Me and Sight Hound as prime examples.)

Rudy says review more books about dogs. Like Lassie or Call of the Wild. Rudy said these girlie books are Ruff to read.
