Este año lo dediqué a la calma, ¿y acaso hay una historia con mayor calma que esta?Aquí hay naturaleza, cabritas, viento, flores, una amistad muy pero que muy bonito, un abuelito que calienta su corazón, miradas adultas que comprenden. Esta historia es un abrazo fuerte para quienes estamos intranquilos. Lo recomiendo mucho.
And what if I move to a tiny cottage in the Alps and start raising goats and little grandkids of mine? what then huh?Now this was no Anne of Green Gables, howsoever, it was still a comforting cocoon of a book. I remember reading a short story earlier in my school days and I found it oddly off-putting? So I found myself not reaching for it, but now I thought it was about time. And I enjoyed it. It was cute.Finally finally finally we got a grandmother that was wholesome- sadly I haven't read a lot
I LOVED this book!! What a story, a story that has stood the test of time! Just BEAUTIFUL!
