This book is intended for an audience of the approximate age level of 13 and older. This would represent levels of junior high, 7th grade and up. This book is adequate for 7th grade because it deals with issues of death and people's perspectives. Everyone has their own interpretation of death and it is appropriate to bring up the issue about this age level. This book might also cause some controversy in the classroom so it is important to stress to the students and parents that it is more about people's perspectives than it is about religion. Although religion isn't used in the novel many people might not agree with what the novel and what it is trying to teach us.
