arned there will be no more treatment for her illness. To know Sophia is to know a girl who is really a tomboy with a splash of girly girl (thanks to her sister), wise beyond her years--an old soul much like her grandparents' vintage cars. Sophia is a funny girl full of spunk and sass and deep love, and a little girl who is a dog whisperer. She is the baby of the family but also the self-appointed caregiver to her older siblings and classmates. She is told by her family that soon she will go to heaven. She knows that heaven is a wonderful place, but she is struggling with leaving her friends, her family, and her beloved dogs. She also has many questions about heaven but is worried about asking questions for fear of upsetting her loved ones.
Sophia finds an unlikely friendship with her nurse, and they walk this journey together, laughing, teasing, and crying--all along the way, making sure to have fun and learning from one another. Sophia discovers that there are still beautiful memories to be made, and hope continues, even when there is no longer a cure for an illness.
