I enjoy your writing style. It's touching, but has a funny edge to it.

I appreciate the encouragement. New to this site and a bit uncertain about the processes here. Again, thanks.

Thanks. Appreciate the comment. Inclined to agree that use of the word "contagion" might be out of reach for a child, even a precocious one. I thought about working around that a bit when I wrote it, but I guess I decided to move on. I'll take another look. Thanks again.

Is a wonderful short story. Well told from a child's viewpoint (excepting the reference to contagion, I found that out of character). Nice work, deserving of more attention.
