I got this good-condition hardcover, signed by illustrator Susan Paradise to a previous owner, at the Book Cellar, and was glad of another release copy.
I've enjoyed several of Dragonwagon's other books - from those for very young children to books for young teens, and even a marvelous cornbread cookbook. This story involves the growing friendship between two neighbors, both well past retirement age; their conversations range far and wide, touching on their pasts and their plans for the future, and as the months pass (and the button, lost from the woman's coat without her noticing, makes its own journeys around the neighborhood via cats, birds, and other chances), the couple become very attached indeed. And the button? Oh, don't worry about *that*!
The illustrations here are lovely, with lots of fun details to find in the background. Very nice book!
