I read this book right when I found out I would miscarry our first baby, but before it physically happened. It was a comforting book. It did not talk directly to/about me, try to explain my loss or give me advice as many of the miscarriage books out there. It was just an escape into another dream world. It was the perfect book to read while in this emotional state. I read it in about 15 minutes and have checked it out from the library several times since then as we have had three confirmed miscarriages now.
