Sorry, this book was just too syrupy for me. Too many flashbacks of happier times, too much depression from the mom. Yeh, I know, I haven't walked in her shoes, but she couldn't pull herself together to want to provide any touch of happiness for her kids, yet some rolls of wrapping paper and plastic cups saved the day. I felt so bad for the kids I had a hard time finishing the book. But if you like sappy stories, enjoy.
