This book was refreshingly different, not at all what I was expecting, fantastic! It was nice to read about someone's happy childhood memories for a change. If it were not for Zip's unique personality and outlook on things, however, I think that this could have been a completely different sort of memoir, a very sad book. These little 'essays' reminded me of how 'off' a child's perspective of things can be and that happiness can indeed be a decision. Go Zippy! I highly recommend this book!
