Sky Memories by Pat Brisson
Ten-year-old Emily's mother has been diagnosed with cancer. Emily is mad, sad, and hopeful all at once. She wants her mother to get well but the treatment isn't making things better. In the last few months of her mothers life she and Emily take mental pictures of the sky. They take pictures everywhere and each photo is very different. All of beautiful pictures of the sky seem to reflect her mothers illness and how Emily is effected by it. This book made me cry but, it also made me see that I don't need to dwell on the past. You can look on to the future and eagerly expect what is there.
