review 1: This book was pretty boring. It wasn't just boring but it was also a little confusing. It was about a girl who suffered from TB. I felt like there was way to much going on where the reader couldn't follow at all. The book was short and went by really fast but when someone dies, the author makes it not seem real. Unlike in other books I've read when people die, I usually cry. In this one, I felt no emotions whatsoever.
review 2: I found this book very touching. This is a story of a girl and her family loving during WWII in Canada. The main character (Marie-Claire) gets tuberculosis along with her two siblings. I wouldn't recommend this to people who cry very easily because ot os a very sad book. I really enjoyed how Marie-Claire went from being really stub
... moreborn and powerful to being caring and sympathetic. I really liked how she learned that friendship is very important. less
