This book, about a boy in a dress, funnily enough, was a wonderful way to pass an hour. It's a story with real characters (prejudices, quirks, sadness and all) and a boy who has the courage to be who he is, with a little encouragement and support from his friends to boot. A great book, David Walliams has done a good job on his first go-round as an author, even throwing a good-humored dig at "Little Britain". Quentin Blake's illustrations are a wonderful as ever. I hope Mr. Walliams writes again - and soon!
