Description
Dear Dr. Fujiyama,
By now, you have probably heard that I'm dead. This means I won't be attending this year's regional science fair, which is a great disappointment to me as I'm sure it also is for you. At the time I died, I felt I was starting to make real progress with those earthworms.
I really enjoyed your class and continue to follow along from the place where -I'm now leaving- I now find myself. Dissecting the pig looked pretty interesting, and I thought I might try it. Unfortunately, there aren't any dead pigs here for me to dissect.
I was disappointed not to see you at the funeral as you were my favourite teacher, even including middle and elementary school. Not to give you a hard time or anything, Dr. F :)
Yours, Elizabeth Marie Hall, 5th period biology

How can fifteen-year-old Liz let go of the only life she has ever known and embrace a new one? Is it possible that a life lived in reverse is no different from a life lived forward?
