A very surprising book. It is actually about the five stages of grief: denial, bargaining, anger, despair, and acceptance. We get to experience these stages with our friend fly who got sucked into the vacuum. All he wants is out. What makes this story truly great is the illustrations. Between the spray paint labeled denial, and the soap of bargaining, and the puppy who just wants his stuff. This book is treat for the eyes and the ears. It sends a message that you do not need to be grieving to understand.
