Katie is 10 years old, and still doesn't know much about the world around her. But Lynn, her sister, does. Or seems to. Lynn is 14, and she is the best sister ever. Since they were small, Lynn and Katie have had a bond different from other sisters. Perfect as an angel, Lynn guides Katie through her path and they all have fun adventures together. Until Lynn gets sick. Really, really sick. Her parents are doing everything they can for their poor little Lynn, who isn't so fortunate. Katie is forced to see the world without Lynn, and learn truths and misconceptions she didn't know of before.
Full of twists and a good taste of reality, Kira-Kira really is a glittering book.
This book was good, but sad. I liked it because it really shows how much you really cherish something until that thing is gone, or, like Lynn, very sick. This book made me think about my sister and if I should be helping more around my house. My favorite part of the book was when Katie tells Lynn and Amber about her dream husband, Joe John Abondondalarama. I would reccomend this book to anyone 11 and up, because it is a lot to handle and take in. You can also read this book if you just like reading emotional books. I think that the lesson in this book is, "Family is what matters most."
