HEY! He forgot Patches!

love this story! can't get enough!

*hands you a tissue, takes two for myself* that was so sweet! *blows nose, dabs eyes* I thought for sure he wouldn't be coming back. . .

This story is so brilliant. I love thinking about what might have happened when Jim was a little boy, and I like reading what others might think happened. This was so touching, and I could picture just about everything in my head as I was reading it. Thanks for writing it!

Tigrin the story is just awsome. You are a great story teller and you realy love the characters. As I was reading the store I could see the hole thing in my head as if Disney had mad a movie of your brilliant story. It brought me to tears. You are an enormously talented wrighter. You should work for Disney and help them bring this story to the big screen and as a TV series. I can't waight for you to wright more Treasure Planet stories. Thank you so very much for for the awsome story. I just love it.

The story is awsome. It brought teirs to my eyes. I wish Disney would animate this. it's brilliant.

Oh man...this story was so sad, so heartbreaking. I LOVE IT! And for the record Jim was NINE when his father left him. If you read the book it's all there in black and white. Kudos to you, kuods.

Wow, superemotional. This chapter is best read listening to "Landfall" by Jimmy Buffett. KEEP WRITING!

So sad, now I see why Jim was so hurt when his father left.

Are you KIDDING about stoning you! This was the best romaticmoent in any story I've ever read. Words can not begin to describe how wonderful it it. Kudos to you, kudos.

~*PLEASE READ THIS!*~ POQUITO IN SPANISH MEANS VERY LITTLE. KEEP WRITING!

Who decided on "Leland" for the name of Jim's father? I gotta know! Keep Writing!

Simply wonderful story, Tigrin. You could tell you loved these characters and this story extremely much...Every word rang of truth. You are truly gifted. Vivid imagery and masterful vocabulary (High compliment coming from a self-and-other proclaimed 'word lover') made the tale come alive. I could see all of the characters perfectly, even if I haven't seen the movie. All I'm saying now is that I definately will. Looking forward to reading more of your writing in the future and will see you around the TLKFAM. Keep it up!

OMG sorry I kept forgetting to review!

That last chapter was stunning. I truly got the images that you described. And the ending was *heartwrenching*! You actually gave me hope for the poor people, and then you delivered that last paragraph. Stroke of genius Tig. You've done well.

*grabs a tissue* I didn't want to review til it ended. And now it has and...man.

I added this story to my favorites...because it really is. It really seems like Disney could make a prequel out of it.

I can't wait to read the next one!
