Poor dear, did this go over my head?
Margaret is only 4 when a childhood accident results in the loss of a friend. Margaret’s guilt surrounding her involvement consumes her, and her terrible mother isn’t much help.
I had high hopes for Poor Deer after hearing so many great things and I did appreciate the originality of the story though I struggled at times to determine what was actually happening vs. Margaret’s imagination. Poor Deer tackles grief, guilt, and the impact of childhood trauma in a unique way.
