About This Book
An elderly woman who has outlived all her friends only names things that will outlast her - her car, her house, her chair. But when a scruffy little puppy starts showing up at her door every day, she must decide whether she's brave enough to love something she might lose.
Why We Love This
A deeply tender story about loneliness, love, and the courage it takes to open your heart - it never fails to move us, and children instinctively understand the old woman's journey.
