Picture Book - Fiction
As her family attempts to calculate the value of the desert hills, the colors of blooming cactus, and the calls of eagles and great horned owls, a young girl--who has been led astray by the family's lack of material wealth--realizes what really matters
At first, I didn't think I would like this book, because all of the pictures are unique and different. Once we started reading it though, I absolutely loved the story. It is such a good story to read to kids, because it teaches how important the family is and that materialistic things just aren't that important. I think this is good to read especially in today's society that is so revolved around the materials.
