Galiah M, Educator
Talking to Alaska is a heartwarming book about a girl who discovers her beloved dog she had to give up now belongs to a classmate with epilepsy, as a service dog. She finds a way to keep visiting the dog, and along the way, builds an honest relationship with the boy. Each child has to work through their own feelings about their challenges. A beautiful story.
