When I was child about 6-7 years old, my father often going to foreign country also. For example, Korea, Chaina, Thai, Singapore, and more something. I was really sad because I prefered my father so much!! He was playing with me all the time and very kind for me. So I wanted to play and eat dinner with my father everyday. This feeling is same as Sprig I think. All children be sad when own family go somewhere. I was waithing his calling when he went there. I can understand her feeling well. I want to cooporate. I understand that I don't distarb him but my feeling was really sad and alone. When I am reading this book, I am nodding all the time.

This book is very interesting and funny for me. My favorite is relationship between older sister, Dakota, and younger sister, Sprig. Dakota is always teasing Sprig. She don't like that and she hates Dakota. However I understand feeling of Dakota. Own younger sister or brother is really funny and I want to tease his or her too!! I like his or her responsible after teased. Dakota is too mean to sprig, not same as me. Dakota knows that Sprig likes her father so much, but when he called his home, Dakota talked everything before talk with Sprig. She prepared for talk but her sister talk everything. So she just say "Are you fine?" like that. My favorite scene is Sprig was took talking things again, and then she said just "I miss you, dad." After she said it, she was shy. That's so pretty and i understood the feeling. I'm reading middle of story. Dakota still tease her sister and Sprig still hates her sister. Recently, she made list of "Ten ways to make my sister disappear." I hope two of sister's relationship be better.
