(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Heather Maione. Annie's mother has died and Annie must face life without her. She goes through the stages of grief while her father struggles to be both mother and father. The tone can get a bit syrupy, but homey ink-and-wash illustrations help keep the novel from slipping into bathos. Hest treads lightly but honestly through her difficult subject.
