Book review: Goodnight June by Sarah Joi

Goodnight JuneGoodnight June by Sarah Jio
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

LOVED this book. I don't know anyone who hasn't read 'Goodnight Moon' and this charming novel gives us one possible explanation for how that iconic children's book came about. June, the main character, struggles to overcome fear and learn how to trust again, she has to face past hurts and really decide what is important in her life, and her great Aunt Ruby helps her accomplish this through a scavenger hunt of sorts in the bookstore she leaves for June in her will. Sentimental at times, this story is sweet and charming and a wonderful read for anyone who grew up loving children's books.
