This story is about loss,recovery, and new discovery as a tragic and slightly bittersweet story unfolds before your very eyes. Fantasy and non-fiction mix in a way that has never been done before.

This book is so different in its ideas, but yet so simple. I read it straight through - I couldn't put it down!

Lois Lowry has amazing ideas, they are so original! I really liked the creativity of these characters! This book was also sad and funny, and had real-life problems! This was one of my favorite books!

Gossamer explains a realistic phenomenon with a fictional solution as if it's natural. I really like how the author "zooms in" on the different people, their situations, and how they begin to overcome their problems. In my opinion Gossamer is a great read for people of all ages.
