I loved this book. I saw the movie trailer and was curious about the book. As a 36 year old I felt weird reading a book geared towards a younger age group. 

I’m so happy I’m stubborn about reading books before seeing a movie - which I’ll finally see tomorrow! 

This was a beautiful story that will have you thinking about the balance of technology and nature as well as found family and the importance of community aimed at helping each other.  I’m curious about the other books in the series and will look for adult books that may touch on the same themes.

This book is beautiful. Brought me to tears more than once reading it aloud with my kids. Can’t wait to get the next one. 

Does contain strong themes around adoption. Could be triggering for any kiddos with abandonment trauma.

This was a delight! I do understand what all the hype was about now. And I can definitely see why this would make an excellent read aloud for elementary schools. There's a little something for everyone in this book; survival, found family, talking animals, commentary about the environment. I'm excited to pick up the next one!
