Review: After Eli

After Eli After Eli by Rebecca Rupp
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Not too many children's books deal so deftly with the aftermath of a death in the family. Danny's older brother is killed while serving in the army. We only meet Eli through memories Danny has, but we see the profound effect this loss has on the whole family. While the subject of this book is serious, the author still manages to find light moments to keep the story from becoming too dark and depressing.
