WELCOME TO OPHELIA’S ROOMS
Welcome to Ophelia’s Rooms but, “Don’t come in here with those dirty shoes!” The author vividly contrasts a room of “Don’ts” and a “Loving” room as she recounts the special relationship with her best friend; her Grandmother, Ophelia. Quietly stand with her in the doorway peering into Ophelia’s majestic bedroom. Then, openly share their laughter, fears, slurps, and hugs in the “Loving” room. The illustrator uses a “splash” of red in her black and white illustrations to represent Ophelia’s unconditional love toward her granddaughter. Was keeping Ophelia’s secret helpful or harmful to her, and those who love her? You decide, after you have read, Ophelia’s Rooms.Outskirts Press Review
