Bright and Shiny Shiny

I really enjoyed this even after spending time last night checking out the various controversies surrounding this book. I read 4 different blogs (which are listed in other's reviews & who all seem to not recommend this) & the accompanying comments & I don't get what the big deal was. But that's just me.
I thought the exploration of an afterlife for a child who knows their illness will probably not take them to adulthood by using the Dia de la Muerte celebration was genius.
