"Six-year-old Laila doesn't understand why she's pulled out of school and away from the rest of her friends following her parents' separation. Now, she spends most of her time observing the park next to her house.

While cleaning up Ralph's messes, Laila begins to understand the complexity of friendship, love, loss, and how to stand on her own."--Back cover.… (meer)

Picked up on sight from the local library for W, he read first without my checking it. W pronounced it "weird: not bad weird, just weird". He then showed me various scenes, specifically panels in which the Dodo was destructive, and the dream sequence (though he didn't identify it as such).

Read myself later: a 6-year-old girl copes with her parents' separation, and subsequent changes in friends and family life, and the bird visits. I especially appreciate the ambiguity as to whether depicted events occurred literally, or stand in for the girl's emotional reality.

Thematic parallels to A Monster Calls, though the underlying story differs. (
