I read this to my daughter, @Kathleen, when she was little and when we got to the saddest part I had to give the book to her dad because I was crying too much. ?
@Noelle I’m a teacher and 3rd grade does it as a read aloud every year. The teachers always flip a coin on who has to read the saddest parts!
I guess that’s fair. ? Funny coincidence, I was in 3rd grade when I first read it!

My Old Pal, Oscar by Amy Hest. I read just after my dog passed away. All the tears. It is such a sweet book.
Bridge to Terabithia, Walk Two Moons, Number the Stars, Homecoming, and Dicey’s Song. They’re more YA but more on the younger side of YA, so I still consider that in the realm of children’s books.
Number the Stars! ????
Such a good book! I bought it for my daughter, she is finally almost old enough to understand the themes!
@Casey walk two moons!!
@Kathleen so underrated!
Bridge to Terabithia
