Query: A Favorite Childhood Gem

I read this book many times as a child; it became one of my favorites. This is a classic tale of rediscovering love and life after great loss. It is beautifully told, descriptive enough to see and smell the surroundings without getting bogged down in too many details. For all its morose beginning, the charm and beauty grows and overwhelms. It is one of those books I never fail to forget and is just as good the tenth time reading it as it is the first.
