註釋Wanting to earn a ten speed bicycle, 12-year old Ellen reluctantly agrees to spend a summer as a companion to 77-year-old Lilith. A powerful friendship grows between these two intriguing characters, and both gain a deeper understanding of old age, loneliness, insecurity, and death. "The story is warm and the writing exemplary."- The New York Times Book Review "A well-written, sympathetic but not sentimental story. An enjoyable, worthwhile book."- School Library Journal "Written with grace and wit, the story entertains while it teaches a lesson about the human condition."- Publishers Weekly
