Commentary:
I was waiting for this book with anxiety for weeks, since it affects me in a very intimate way because
I had a relative who suffered from this sad illness and it is worth noting that it was my grandmother. The story is very moving and sad. In all the illustrations it can be seen as something; (in this case crows), as it reminds you that something sad or terrible will happen. We usually represent the crows as death or something negative, I imagine because of its mysterious color; (poor animals).
This book I loved, I have no complaints about him. Besides the book, it brings with it a CD where the audiobook is recorded and brings instrumental music to pause in each illustration of the book I have imagined the scenes.
Something I could not understand was the relationship of the title with the story; Although they did an interview at the end of the book to the author and asked him that question, but still I could not understand. What's the title?
