This was a really well done book that I enjoyed it a lot. The story is mostly about a kid going into 5th grade whose parents are struggling with money problems. The kid's childhood imaginary friend comes back to help him out.
I listened to this on audiobook and the audiobook was well done. The narrator does a great job with emotion and different voices.
There's a lot about family and friendship in here. As well as some magical realism. While the story can be a bit of a tear-jerker (at least for me as a parent) it's done in a somewhat humorous tone so it ends up being a fun read.
My ten year old son is reading it right now and has really been enjoying some of the humor and the imaginary cat :-) He was also discussing with me how lucky he feels to have never been in the situation the main character ends up in; so I think it was good for him to read about that.
Overall this is a quick little book that I would definitely recommend. It packs a lot of story for its short length and is great for all ages.
