    I was intrigued by this movie, because of the cute picture of a little white dog. When I watched this, I was struck by how predictable, and obvious it was. Dog has super powers. Dog attacked by bad guys. Dog forms crew. It was kind of like the movie makers didn't even try.

    This is by far the saddest movie I have ever watched, and one of the most touching. Kennedy Hansen has always thought she was just a regular girl. Driving her mother's car at age 5, being obsessed with boys and cheerleading. But it turns out, everything is not what it seems. Kennedy falls at school, and has to go to the hospital, where it is discovered, she has a problem with her eyes. Kennedy is taken from clinic to clinic in search of a cure, without success. Finally, someone knows what's happening. Kennedy has Batten's disease, a rare sickness without any known cure. Kennedy pushes forward believing in God, and that she can survive. Then, the unthinkable happens. Kennedy loses her speech and eyesight completely, and finally begins to fade away. No one can believe that someone so full of life and love has to finally go. Kennedy has filled her life with beauty, and love, and has made her sixteen years the best years of her family's life. I loved this movie, because it was so full of emotion, and because it really shows the struggle of day to day life for someone with Batten's disease. I recommend this movie to anyone, and everyone. It will touch your heart.

    I want to watch this, because I read the books, and I heard the movie was also really good. I hope that this movie is really as good as people keep saying it is.

    I want to read this book, because I enjoy Alan Gratz's historical fiction works, and I am ready to see a new world. I think I will really like this, and honestly I think that I will grow from it as well.

    I saw this book in my fifth grade classroom last year, and I thought it sounded interesting, so I tried it out. I loved it. Amy Anne was an incredibly realistic character, and Gratz did a great job writing this. I would love to read this again.

    I am a big fan of historical Holocaust fiction, and when I heard that Alan Gratz released this, I was excited to see for myself. I cannot wait to buy a copy, and I really think I would love to read this. Can't wait!

    Another book for Christmas. I have read Ground Zero, and loved it. I'm looking forward to see if Gratz has yet another win. Looking forward to reading!
