Review: Annie and the Old One by Miska Miles

Synopsis: Annie is a young Navajo girl who refuses to believe that her grandmother, the Old One, will die. As she struggles to left go, she learns about life and death.

Review: Sweet story of a young girl learning to deal with the death of a loved one. Her attempts to prevent it are child-like, and remind me how child conceive the world. It was sweet and heart-breaking. An excellent book for young children, perhaps for those who are struggling to understand death.
