A tender story about loss and grief. Two kids and their dad find an injured fawn at the edge of the forest. They take it home and nurse it back to health, and in the process the family slowly manages to cope with the loss of the mom. As the fawn grows, however, it gets more curious about the forest. The kids have to learn to say goodbye because the forest is where the now-grown deer belongs.

This is an odd little book. It’s also a sad little book. Two children find a hurt deer alongside, the road and take them home. They name this deer lion in lion becomes a member of the family. The kids needed a distraction and a new friend. They are still suffering from the loss of their mother. we see the family, including the grandmother and how they interact with lying and lying all yearning to be part of the forest beyond. There is a side story about another deer who is injured and show more taken in by a little grandmother figure deep in the woods, and how one day grandma doesn’t come back, and that deer has the house to themselves, and eventually lien finds this house towards the end of the book it’s that part that makes this book odd. Overall, the story is lovely but sad. A modern age Bambi if you well. I liked it and the artwork is lovely, but it is not something I wish to read again. show less
