What a lovely story. I bought this book for myself because I love children's books. I also bought this book because I love Patricia Polacco's books, it has a nice storyline, and because we live in the Bay Area and it is nice to see Oakland depicted in a positive way.
The nice thing about Patricia Polacco's books is that they appeal to not only children but adults as well. This book (and many of her others) was enjoyed by me, my mother AND my tween daughter; three generations! I have read these books to my daughter throughout her childhood, but she still enjoys them, even as a 12 year old!
