What an incredible character study — the charming narrator is sweet and funny and maddening all at the same time, and as the story developed my heart was breaking for his troubled parents. I was nervous at first that this book would be extremely sad or intense but I found it delightful to listen to and ultimately quite uplifting. Listening to the book rather than reading it helped to emphasize the unique narrative perspective of the story — the perfect combination of literature and performance.
