This book is appropriate for grades 4-6.
When Lucky's mother is electrocuted and dies after a storm, Lucky's father calls his ex-wife, Brigitte, to fly over from France to take care of the child. Two years later, the 10-year-old worries that Brigitte is tired of being her guardian and of their life in the middle of the California desert.

This book would be a good book to talk about death, family, California, France, or the desert. It is very versitile and covers a lot of topics.
After reading this book it made me think of how important family is. We need to cherish and repect our time with family because it could all be gone in an instant.
