Summary: This book is about a little girl growing a garden with her grandpa. She wants blue roses but he tells her there are none. When he dies, the family is very sad until they see blue roses at his grave.
Opinion: This book is really sweet. I like the positive views surrounding death that are held by many Native American people. The book is great for a grieving kid or just somebody who wants to learn more about the culture.

I enjoyed the look into Native American culture that this book provided. The large print and bright colors makes it easy for children to read.
I loved this story about friendship and acceptance. My daughter loved it as well.
