Title: Best character: the worms
Review: Todd loves worms. He collects them, experiments with them and uses them to scare his sister and her friend. One day he cuts a worm in two and the reaction he thinks he sees in the rest of the worms makes him wonder if they saw it. When worms start showing up in unexpected places, like in his cap and in his meals, he begins to fear that the worms take revenge for the way he acted.I didn't enjoy this book. Todd is an utterly unlikable main character, both in regards to his behaviour towards the helpless animals and his surroundings. I need to able to root for the protagonist in a book, and Todd could not awaken my sympathy at all.Furthermore, the story was no more than okay, there never was any explanation of the thing the big bird scared away, and the end was very sudden and threw in a new component altogether.
