It is extremely disturbing to acknowledge that this really does happen in our world. The subject matter is a whole different review for me. What I found to be brilliant was the viewpoint of the author. Jack said and did things that were so endearing that I laughed and cried at the same time. The author was exactly where she should have been in this little boy's thought process. As I read, I experienced his wonder as he experienced Outside, and I was heartbroken along with him as he learned the realities of our society. Makes you think twice about teaching your children what's important.Italiahttp://tearingdownvsbuildingup.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2015861203212804796.post-30850056038508114842011-01-21T05:10:35.511+08:002011-01-21T05:10:35.511+08:00I can't wait to read this one.
