Reach for this book when your child is struggling to make sense of a deep loss and seems to have lost their sense of magic or wonder in the world. After the death of his baby sister, eleven year old Wunderkind (Wunder) Ellis has stopped believing in the 'miracles' he used to collect, but a mysterious encounter with a woman living in a cemetery forces him to look closer at the world around him. It is a deeply moving story that tackles the heavy reality of grief with a gentle, lyrical touch. While the subject matter is profound, the growing friendship between Wunder and his classmates provides a sense of hope and lightness. It is a perfect choice for middle grade readers who are ready to explore complex emotions through a lens of mystery and community healing.
