(3) 4-6 Louise is sent to live with relatives for six weeks while her dad is working in Brazil. Feeling neglected, she reaches out to abandoned animals: bunnies, baby raccoons, even a dead crow. When her father contracts a deadly infection, Louise must come to terms with her feelings. The dense narration lends itself to strong imagery; themes of loss and rejection are effectively developed.
