While this story might get a different reaction today under current border conditions, these stories are true.
They happen every day across America though I’ve personally never seen a child do this.
I imagine this book will make some people mad and some people sad and some people frustrated.

This is a beautiful and sad book that can be read aloud for Memorial Day. It brought tears to my eyes.
Third-grade students enjoyed this read-aloud! Cute story and illustrations.

The Bottom Line: This seasonal tale if perfect for a holiday story time. With a surprise twist ending, this endearing picture book celebrates friendship.
