I wouldn't recommend this to anyone! I couldn't make it past the first chapter, the writing is so terrible, written from the view of a 5 yr old boy, the mentality of it is worse than that, being around a 5 yr old I found this more like a 3 yr old. The first part of the book where it has 'quotes' from various persons must be from the unknown, I didn't recognize any of those names or who they supposedly wrote for, therefore I have my doubts they exist and it is just the publisher trying to make it sound 'great'--well don't be fooled--it's terrible!
