I loved this book in elementary school. I remember buying it at the school book fair and crying and crying at the end. I don't get why this one often appears on the banned/challenged list-so weird. ...more

An ok story, but I don't like sad, depressing stories. ...more

I have been going through banned book lists I find (see: www.ala.org) and finding books to read from there.
This was a book that was on a list I found.


I saw the movie BEFORE I read this book. Great movie. You will totally cry your eyes out.

My mom read this to me the first time, and then I read it. Watching the movie, I still cry at the end.
