How did this book end up in my stack of books to read? Who knows, maybe in the same way Milo gets his tollbooth it found its way into my hands, my eyes and my heart. It simply is the sweetest, funniest, wisest book I’ve read so far (i.e. november)
How could I possibly feel so close to a schoolboy and his worries? Perhaps I’m a child at heart :) (wishful thinking!. Terribly lost in the endless maze of dull routine, that’s more like it).
It’s neither preachy nor patronizing. It just makes you see that if a boy can figure out what’s wrong with him and this troublesome world so can you. It just begs you to open your eyes, your ears, your heart and your mind. Pretty simple, eh?
