"Changes come and changes go. Love through changes makes love grow."
When her mother is deployed overseas, a young girl is temporarily parted from her beloved dog.

[Sometimes Love] eloquently conveys a wide range of emotions and lessons through its spare prose and expressive...illustrations that seem to shimmer off the page... An important lesson for young readers conveyed poetically with lots of heart.
