Katja Labonté's Reviews > pluie d'etoiles

4.5 stars (4/10 hearts). When I first read this story in the value Village aisle, I was moved almost to tears. It’s such a delightful story with a great moral. After a little while, though, it occurred to me that it was rather illogical. The people taking from the child are often better off or have someone to help them (say a husband, parents, etc) which made it puzzling to me why she had to depriver herself to help them. Also, the ending bugged me a little, though the illustration of her undressed is blurry and from far away. It’s still a great story, and the artwork is lovely, so I would totally read it and discuss it with my kids… but I don’t like it enough to buy it, even from Value Village.
