Title: Beautifully written, thoroughly enjoyable read
Product review: Not only is this story a memoir of the three-week trip around the world, it is an autobiography of their childhood. So many great humorous scenes - several I just had to read to my husband! I did not feel the detatchment to the parents as some readers described, but I got a clear picture of parent/child relations in the generation before me. And although I do not having siblings I grew up with, I did not feel alienated and was genuinely drawn into the friendship between them. Several parts had me in tears - and not just from laughing.I want my husband and his older brother (who are close) to read this - I think it will spark their memories of childhood.All in all, a fantastic book! For anyone - men and women alike, with or with out siblings, younger or older.... something for all.
