Told by Ross' little brother, this book tells the story of Ross' death and the family's grief. Ross dies as he runs in front of a car while he is playing with his brother. Ross' brother's feelings are realistic: he misses him; he hates him; he hates the injustice that Ross died but old people are still alive; he remembers all their arguments and fights; he remembers the fun and laughs, too; he feels weird being an only child. His emotions seesaw between good and bad, happy and sad. A very good book for describing the grief process.
