Bird Lake Moon by Kevin Henkes

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars
Kevin Henkes is usually praised for writing accurately about a child's thought's and feelings. This is nowhere more true than in this book. He captures the frustration and fear of two kids dealing with the fallout of events that are beyond their control, and does so with grace. I only wish there was more of a plot, more of a story arc. I realize that would detract from the realistic feel of the book, so I supposed that is more of a preference than a critique.
