Beautiful short and sweet amongst tragedy and poverty stricken families.
Not for me.
A charming, touching short novel of an Irish girl’s summer visit with relatives whose love and care is unlike anything she has ever received in her own home.
A bit like Anne Green Gables in Ireland I loved every bit of it
read this little gem in one quick sitting. saw david sedaris live a few months ago and he was raving about "small things like these". couldn't get my hands on it at the library, so i read this one first and loved every minute of it.
