Title: A Must-Read
Review: The Book of Everything is easily one of the best books I've read over the past five years. This wonderful book is enchanting, moving, thought-provoking. I read it three times, then pressed my mom & sister to read it so I could discuss it with someone. They loved it as much as I did (I knew they would!) I intend to make it a selection for my book club, for although it's a slim volume, it is packed full with much to think about and discuss. A negative -- why the heck didn't this book sell better? If you read it, you'll wonder the same thing. I think the problem is in the marketing. Although the story unfolds from the point-of-view of a nine year old boy, this is an adult book, albeit one a child might also enjoy. The book should have been marketed to adults. It's a shame more people aren't aware of this book.
