内容概要

　　Ten-year-old Comfort Snowberger has attended 247 funerals--her
family owns the local funeral home, after all. And even though
Great-uncle Edisto keeled over with a heart attack and
Great-great-aunt Florentine dropped dead--just like that--six
months later, Comfort knows how to deal with loss, or so she
thinks. She's more concerned with avoiding her crazy cousin Peach
and trying to figure out why her best friend, Declaration, suddenly
won't talk to her. But life is full of surprises. And the biggest
one of all is learning what it takes to handle them. In this
heartfelt and quintessentially Southern coming-of-age novel,
Comfort will charm young readers with her wit, her warmth, and her
struggles as she learns about life, loss, and ultimately, triumph.
"I""ncludes reader's guide and a biography of the author."
