Kevin Henkes Quote

What do you do when you are really, really sad? When you are full of dread, is what she really meant.Godbee exhaled through her nose, making a whistling sound. Hmm. When I`m genuinely suffering I try to think of someone worse off than I am. And then, if it happens to be someone I know and I`m feeling particularly saintly, I try to do something nice for him or her.
