By: Trudy Ludwig | Illustrator: Kathryn OtoshiInspired by the Wind Telephone in Japan, this poignant story explores the stages of grief, the healing power of hope, and the unbreakable family bonds that connect us all. From the acclaimed author of The Invisible Boy and the award-winning illustrator of One.
In a small village in Japan, a family mourns the loss of their loved one. Each family member grieves in their own way, but it is not until they discover an old-fashioned telephone booth on a windswept hill that they begin to heal. Through the telephone, they are able to express feelings long bottled up--speaking directly to their loved one and also to each other. Slowly but surely, the pain subsides, and hope blossoms anew.
Inspired by Itaru Sasaki's Wind Telephone, which brought healing to the people of Japan in the wake of an earthquake and tsunami this story explores grief and loss, and how we move forward by finding meaningful ways to connect with the family and friends we've lost, as well as those who are still with us.
"Truly beautiful and poignant. This book is for anyone who's ever experienced loss or grief, which is to say: all of us." —Katherine Applegate, Newbery Award-winning author of The One and Only Ivan

Captured a reluctant readers attention
Format: Kindle
We downloaded this book this morning for the Kindle. My daughter is a reluctant chapter book reader, but she saw the cover and was hooked. She loves cats. She read the whole book independently in one sitting and then started rereading it!
I think reading it on the Kindle helped because it gave her percentages of her progress and made her more motivated to finish it!

Cute, funny, and purrfect
Format: Paperback
My daughter and I have been reading this book and have had lots of laughs. We love Gray's personality 😆 It's so fun that it's intertwined with the Unicorn and Sprinkles books we've caught all the hints and when things have happened in the other books. My daughter hopes there will be more books for this series!

Right level
Format: Kindle
Easy to read. Was the right balance of chapter book with minimal pictures that helped my 7 year old stay engaged without needing a picture on every page. My reader made connection of characters/events from other stories by same author.
Review from 7 year old: "Liked that it was a cat with sunglasses."
