Rating:  - A must read for a child who is growing up
As a teacher, I've given this book as a gift to a departing student that needed something to hold on to. Life brings trouble, even to 9 and 10 year olds. This book takes a child's perspective on the what is really important in life, and about the choices you make, and leads a reader to explore their existence. It's deep, but within reach. It also would be a great discussion opener for a family.
