Whimsical and Sweet
One girl, five states, and six days to cross them in
-- this is the situation Lyssa Lee is forced into when she finds that her home
in Texas is to be destroyed. So, she hops on her scooter and heads home. Along
the way, magical things, gifts from her late mother’s spirit, happen and speed
her on her way. Will she make it? Regardless, it will certainly be a most
fantastical adventure. This is a sweet story with a slow pace. Lyssa is a very
lovable and believable character. The miracles along the way make the story
seem quite light-hearted. This is a book to read to lighten a depression, as it
has a sense of joy about the plot. I would definitely recommend it to younger
readers. Older readers may find it boring. However, if you like miraculous,
feel-good stories than this book is for you. Personally, I thought that Lyssa
should work a little harder for her goals.
