I enjoyed this story about a girl searching for her birth mother. I wish I personally had more background on the Korean War, although the way this book is written, you can sometimes forget it's set in a historical time period. I was swept up in the mystery and the artwork.

Short, sweet story of Perry, an only child who is scheduled for lots of activities but wants to connect with her grandmother. She creates an abecedary about the nursing home her grandmother lives in as a way of connecting. I enjoyed this sweet little story, although I felt like I was dropped in and whisked out of someone's life without fully being given beginning and ending details.
