From the New York Times bestselling author of Wolfie the Bunny comes a witty send-up of inspirational greeting card wisdom that reminds readers of life’s unpredictability and messiness–and beauty.

After Life literally knocks on their door, one kid discovers that Life is truly what you make it. It’s weird and may not always cooperate, but Life’s beauty becomes apparent when it’s embraced for all of its quirks. This story is filled with tongue-in-cheek idioms that will appeal to readers of all ages and will impart deeper wisdoms about the many milestones and stages of life.

Praise for That's Life!:
"[H]umorous, kid-friendly, and clever [...] a level of fun that will satisfy readers of all ages."
Kirkus Reviews
"The mood is always upbeat--or, at the very least, maintains a 'dust yourself off and keep going' attitude--with plenty of reminders that whatever life is, it is for sure one wild ride."
Publishers Weekly
"A terrific reminder to readers of all ages that life, in all forms, is worth treasuring."
Booklist
"[Readers] starting a new phase in life (say, kindergarten or a move) may appreciate the physical manifestation of their feelings and assurance that everything will be okay."
